Jayson Tatum, a star in style and stats, sidelined for the rest of the postseason and possibly through the next, exits not just the floor, but also the tunnel where he’s been the quiet anchor of NBA player style all season.
Tatum didn’t chase trends, though he often highlighted and reflected cycles and psyches. His style was not about shock value either. His choices appeared considered, specific, and consistent.
Tatum’s outfits looked cool, clean, and calculated, and often thematic and highly expressive. Not for attention, but having purpose, signaling pride and presence … a respect for the stage, and a treat to his fashionista fans watching closely.
