Former NBA guard Monta Ellis is apparently quite generous when it comes to denim, which his former Golden State Warriors teammate Jeremy Lin revealed while giving a commencement speech at National Chengchi University in Taiwan earlier this week.

"When I was a rookie, I owned one pair of jeans. My fashion game was weak," Lin said, before adding that Ellis bought him 20 expensive pairs a week later.

"People don't always agree with Monta, but I'll always remember that was doing things the right way."

Welcome to the offseason, folks.
