He may be a member of the Los Angeles Lakers, but Timofey Mozgov is still wearing the shirt of the Cleveland Cavaliers' unofficial mascot.

The 7-foot-1 Russian center showed up to his contract signing in style, wearing his "Lil Kev" shirt as he officially inked a $64-million deal.

"Lil Kev" is a cutout character that was created by Cavaliers forward Richard Jefferson this past season. The cutout strongly resembled his teammate Kevin Love, and was famously used in many of Jefferson's Snapchats throughout the Cavaliers' playoff run.
