Athletes have never cared more about style. The NBA dress code and social media peacocking have revolutionized the way our favorite sports stars dress themselves, and gone are the days of garbage-bag suits, pinstripes everywhere, and this thing. That said, not everyone's caught up to the times, which is why each week, we'll be highlighting the poor souls who are still running the proverbial triple option of sartorial playbooks.
This week, New Year's Eve brings out the worst in formalwear, Melo continues his quest to wear all the hats in the world, and more. These are The Worst Athlete Style Fails of the Week.

Hahaha, y'all lost bad.
Damian Lillard
It's like he ran out of clothes so he made a new shirt and suit out of several different shirts and suits.
Chase Daniel
This is what happens when you build an entire outfit around matching your beard.
Russell Wilson
STOP WEARING ALL BLACK.
Dwyane Wade
Do you think his kids wanted to dress like that? Or was Wade like, no son of mine's not wearing cropped hems and smoking slippers.
Johnny Manziel
Duck Dynasty camo, for hiding from team officials in the club.
