The NBA Hipster Fashion Craze Literally Came Out Of Nowhere

NBA stars have gone full-on hipster with their fashion at post-game press conferences this year.

But where did this trend come from? NBA players were not wearing anything close to frameless glasses last year, or in years past. In fact, they basically stuck to your run-of-the-mill suit, not adhering to any of the latest fashion trends. So why now?

We took a look at what the big players were wearing at press conferences in the past several years and came up with two theories:

1) The OKC Thunder and Miami Heat are relatively young teams compared to teams in the finals in years past. They are just more attuned to what's going on in the fashion world.

2) Westbrook decided to wear a crazy outfit, caught everyone's attention, so the rest of the players decided to follow suit.

We're not sure, but something definitely happened.

Back in 2008, Paul Pierce didn't even try to dress up for the post-game press conference



And in 2008 Kobe accessorized with his adorable daughters, not frame-less glasses



A year later, in 2009, Kobe went with another normal suit, and some giant diamond earrings
