Continuing, he mentioned saying: “I think he’s doing it just….it’s like because they can’t get high right now because they got to get tested really soon but it’s just like somebody smoked a bunch of weed and said you should put a dress on and let’s take pictures and see what happens when you post it. And that’s what it seems like he’s literally saying I don’t care.” Salley said.

Players have made headlines through their outfits, just like Rodman made headlines for his style sense and matching hair color. As Westbrook steps out of his comfort zone and shows us his new style, we’d like to know your thoughts in the comments section below.
