It's safe to say that Brazilian basketball players Leandro Barbosa and Nene are not known for their keen sense of fashion. That isn't a knock on their style, but more of an observation that they haven't exactly lit up red carpets and film festivals like Amar'e Stoudemire.
Thanks to Vogue magazine, Barbosa and Nene can add their names to the list of athletes doubling as fashion icons.
Behold, via Barbosa's Instagram, both players engaging in pick-up hoops against models, and showing off designer handbags.
This may be the best photograph ever of basketball players holding purses.
