Tre Johnson's Outfit at 2025 NBA Draft is Turning Heads For the Wrong Reason
The NBA Draft is a moment where 59 players from across the world will hear their name called, marking the beginning of their childhood dream of becoming NBA players.

While the draft is, of course, known for providing the NBA's biggest stars, it is also known for giving us some dos and don'ts when it comes to fashion.
Whether it was LeBron James' baggy suit during the 2003 NBA Draft, Trae Young's shorts with his suit or Kevin Knox's "Fortnite" suit in 2018, there have been plenty of memorable suits throughout the years.
Unfortunately for former Texas Longhorns star, Tre Johnson, his suit appears to be trending toward joining this list of fashion don'ts. The No. 6 overall selection by the Washington Wizards also went the shorts route, but his are oversized, and he has a pair of white sox to go with them.

Fans on social media had plenty to say about his outfit, with many of them not necessarily feeling it.
"Draft outfit stolen from a 1920s boys boarding school," joked one fan.
"If he doesn't come out with a guitar singing "Shoot To Thrill" I'm leaving the arena," said another.
"Getting attention was his goal, not fashion. Unfortunately many will fall into his trap of commenting on this poorly chosen outfit …. Myself included," wrote a third.
"Not tre… dressed like he attends a hs all male boarding school," quipped another.

While fans may not love his outfit, fans in D.C. will love his scoring ability. The 2025 SEC Freshman of the Year averaged 19.9 points per game on 42.7% shooting from the field and 39.7% from deep.

With the Wizards moving on from Jordan Poole, Johnson can step into that role and possibly be even more efficient.

Cubs' Kyle Tucker Gets New $600 Million Contract Update Amid Latest Rumors
Cubs' Kyle Tucker Gets New $600 Million Contract Update Amid Latest Rumors originally appeared on Athlon Sports. There are a few ways the Chicago Cubs front office should look at Kyle Tucker's potential deal. Advertisement For one, why trade the package they did if they didn't plan on keeping him? On top of that, if the Cubs plan to give Tucker the money he's looking for, there's no excuse for them not to give the rest of the roster a major boost in the offseason. Spending that type of money on one player doesn't make any sense if they don't want to improve the remainder of the roster. But some believe that Tucker's new contract could be egregious, including Jim Bowden of The Athletic, who recently noted that it's going to be 'excessive.' He didn't say exactly what it might be, but he believes that the number could start with a six in front of it. Chicago Cubs right fielder Kyle Tucker (30) reacts as he rounds the bases after hitting a solo home run against the New York Mets during the fourth inning at Citi Penner-Imagn Images 'It's going to get excessive, so if you don't want to do excessive, you're probably not going to get him,' said Bowden. 'I've said this before and I'll stand by it; he's going to get a 6 in front of his number.' Advertisement 'Great defender, great arm. They are just few and far between,' said Bowden. 'When you're in your 20s like he is, he's going to age well, you can feel comfortable giving him a 10 to 12-year contract. He's a complete player; there's nothing he can't do.' There's a major difference between $500 and $600 million. However, if that's what the Cubs have to do to keep Tucker around, there's a very strong argument to be made that they should. Of course, there are downsides to any type of big deal, but he's well worth the money compared to what others have gotten around the league.

Did Deion Sanders Make ESPN's List of Best NFL Draft Picks?
Did Deion Sanders Make ESPN's List of Best NFL Draft Picks? originally appeared on Athlon Sports. ESPN recently released a list of 'The best NFL draft pick ever at every slot from No. 1 to 262.' As expected, the best of the best were featured with a few surprises. Advertisement However, one name expected to be part of the greatest was on the list. Deion Sanders was given the title of best No. 5 pick in NFL history. The Colorado Buffaloes coach beat out a few all-time talent to be considered as the GOAT pick for the Atlanta Falcons. While there are a few inaccuracies with the list, ESPN's Ben Solak did an outstanding job putting it all together. Here was the reasoning behind his analysis. I know this because I've spent the past month or so looking at every draft pick since the common draft era began (1967) and using the modern seven-round format (Nos. 1-262) to answer that very question: Who was the best player taken at this draft slot? Plenty of "Oh, I remember him!" moments ... and plenty of impossible decisions. How I went about things: I took "best" to mean some combination of "most talented" and "most successful." As is always the challenge in debating the bestness of football players, any argument that exclusively looks at Super Bowl wins and All-Pro nods is insufficient and lacks context. Similarly, any argument that leans solely on individual player stats and film impressions is lacking as well. I generally tried to use historical accolades to contextualize career-long production. Peak season performance and single-season record-setting also mattered to me; this isn't just a measure of who played the longest but also who played ... well, the best. And of course, rings matter because rings always matter. But there's no formula here. There's my read on each pick, levied as fairly as I could make it. Disagreement is expected. In order to be the best draft pick, you kind of have to play for the team that drafted you. I only used this rule to the water's edge -- I'm not dumb enough to knock Brett Favre because he was drafted by the Falcons. But when it came to splitting hairs, the spirit of the exercise implies that the player was talented and the team that drafted him was successful because of the pick. Lifers for one franchise got an edge over career journeymen. There isn't a bump for QB value (unless it was inescapable). Again, the specifics of the exercise established a guardrail. Is "best draft pick" the same as "most valuable draft pick?" If that feels like a pointless distinction, understand that I had to make it in order to solve several ties. I'm interested in finding the best player regardless of position, which means that safeties can beat quarterbacks, and guards can beat pass rushers. Only in cases of the blatantly obvious (see: Purdy, Brock) did I let the expanded impact of the quarterback position affect my choice. I am 28 years old. I did my best with the stars of the 1970s and 1980s, but please do not interpret any mischaracterizations of the historical GOATs as ageist propaganda. When I'm being deliberately anti-throwbacks, I'll make it very clear, I promise Related: Nike Pays Homage to Deion Sanders' Untouchable 'Double Play' Feat Sanders went fifth overall in 1989 NFL Draft. He was 'Prime Time' for a reason and lived up to that nickname during his illustrious career Advertisement 'It's a loaded fifth pick (Junior Seau, LaDainian Tomlinson, Jalen Ramsey and Ja'Marr Chase), but Sanders gets the nod for his unique place as a two-way player (not to mention his two rings — one of which came in his Defensive Player of the Year season — and his six first-team All-Pro appearances),' Solak writes. 'Does he also get a bump for providing excellent return on a sixth-round draft pick in the MLB draft? Who's to say?' Related: Lil Wayne Sees Deion Sanders During Trip to Texas Amid Growing Health Concerns Nobody can argue about Sanders' place on this list. He's one of the greatest athletes on the face of the planet with a mark in not only the NFL, but MLB as well. During his Prime (no pun intended), Sanders could've played in the NBA for the Atlanta Hawks and was giving an opportunity to try out in the early 90s.
