The Pacers’ hold the 11th (and 43rd) pick in the 2015 NBA Draft, which is set to begin Thursday at 7:00 pm ET. We do not yet know who the team will select, but we do know what he’ll be wearing.
The team’s official draft cap by adidas for 2015 is out, and available for sale. It costs $28.04 for the adult snapback and $24.30 in youth sizes.
Fashion is very much a part of today’s NBA culture and the NBA Draft is the first place for the future of the league to show off their personality. The 20 or so guys invited into the green room at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn will all be sporting custom tailored suits, some more flashy than others.
See Paul George; Danny Granger; Andrew Wiggins, last year’s top pick.
Once a prospect’s name is called, he will be given the adidas hat, walk across the stage to shake NBA Commissioner Adam Silver’s hand, and then pose for pictures. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime moment so the players are sure to be looking their best — and some choose to make a statement.
