‘Tis the season for Russell Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder to turn things around. That starts with an ESPN magazine feature.

Resident fashion icon and reigning MVP Russell Westbrook will be gracing the cover of ESPN the Magazine’s ‘Tis the Season issue. It releases this Friday, and will assuredly feature an array of outstanding looks from the world’s most fashionable athlete.

Here’s the preview from his Twitter account:

Westbrook’s love for fashion will combine with his Christmas spirit to create, what will likely be, a festive wardrobe.His latest collection entitled Honor the Gift 001 dropped in November and was met with plenty of success, selling out in 24 hours.

Brodie launched his caution-themed collection of uni-sex street wear in an auto-body shop in Oklahoma City.

“My humble beginnings started here,” Westbrook said in an interview with Vogue Magazine. “I’ve been conceptualizing the idea for many years and felt it’s time for me to launch my own brand with my own messages. Honor the Gift is a brand of self belief to honor the gift that ‘he’ has given to you, shaped into different product offerings that represent personal promise to challenge all and achieve greatness no matter the hardship.”

For as much as Westbrook has achieved on the court, he has accomplished arguably as much off the court in fashion and art. In doing so, he’s caught the attention of the world.
