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.
