Who were the top players sporting the best attire stepping into Mortgage Matchup Center on Wednesday, Oct. 22, for the Phoenix Suns‘ opener against the Sacramento Kings?
The new-look Suns showed off their threads in the players’ tunnel before the game. That includes their four-time All-Star Devin Booker, who sported a beige zip-down coat, baggy white pants and black boots.

Before the game, GQ revealed that Booker was included in the fashion magazine’s “50 Most Stylish People Alive.”
Booker’s new teammate and fellow starter, Dillon Brooks, is known for his eccentric fashion sense. He came into the arena with a sleek black vest, matching pants and boots, plus a white collar button-down shirt and sunglasses.
The Kings’ latest addition and former MVP Russell Westbrook never fails to impress with his fits entering the locker room. Westbrook had on a dark blue-colored, flower print-pattern zipdown coat, matching pants and black boots.
When The Arizona Republic asked Suns rookie Koby Brea who he believed had the best outfit, he named second-year big Oso Ighodaro for his simple all-black getup. When Brea spoke about himself, he laughed and replied that he’s just a “team gear guy.”

The Suns’ Nigel Hayes-Davis appointed his professional suit as the team’s best look because it was his “first game back” in the NBA and “wanted to feel good about the moment.” He last played in the league during the 2017-18 season for Kings.

Suns owner Mat Ishbia said at their morning shootaround that 60 alumni were slated to attend the first game against the Kings.
