Watching the NBA’s annual draft gives basketball fans a chance to see the stars of tomorrow as awkward young rookies. It also gives them a chance to see some of the most over-the-top suits ever tailored. How well do you remember the noteworthy fashions of drafts gone by?

No more dumb quizzes that no one knows the answer to, unless they look it up please.

the suits are my favorite part of the draft. they should sell throwback suits the way they sell old jerseys.

Congratulations. This is the first mentalfloss.com quiz that drew the “I could give a rat’s rear end” response from me. And that includes several quizzes for TV shows which, for schedule reasons, I don’t follow.

The readers sure are restless today. Paul, why don’t you let everyone know your TV viewing schedule so the quiz-makers can tailor the topics to you?

As a person who is not a basketball fan I must ask, is this a joke or do these people think they’re fashionable? I mean, basketball players have a huge canvas to work with. Can someone say Armani, perhaps anything that didn’t come from K-mart or the garbage? Too funny.
