Wikipedia defines metrosexual as “a neologism generally applied to heterosexual men with a strong concern for their appearance, and who display many of the lifestyle tendencies of stereotypical gay men“. I wouldn’t say the NBA is a hot bed for Metros like, say, soccer? But, here is a list of the six individuals you’re most likely to see in a club over cologned, four buttons down giving the wink/shooters point/ mouth click-click.

[SF] “Pretty” Ricky Davis - Even more eye catching than Ricky Flair’s shot selection is his carefully crafted facial follicles. This is where funk meets metrosexual.

[PF] Jeff “Blue Steel” Foster - Jeff parlayed his sour pucker into the big screen biography Zoolander, a story about the trials and tribulations that beautiful people face.
Natalie Postman on Jeff: “He’s almost TOO good looking. That would be my… my main deterrent to you know, considering a relationship.”

[C] Andris “Sonic the Metro Sexual Hedgehog” Biedrins - Where has you seen Andris before? He was Romance on VH1’s I Love New York season one. This Latvian is the list’s only import. He took what fellow countryman, Andre Kirilenko, did to the HNL (hole nofva level). Is he standing still or flying down the court? His hair will never tell.

[SG] Dwyane “Miami Sweet” Wade - Take commercials, the magazine covers, and a certified man crush courtesy of Bill Walton and it all adds up to the leagues most dangerous metrosexual triple threat.

[PG] Damon “Look at Me” Jones - What’s lacking in substance is more than made up for with unparalleled style. Bug eyed glasses, and suits that range from fire engine red to leopard, he’s fashionably reckless and we love it!
- Damon’s fashion faux pas: 1. Wearing white before Easter 2. Wearing linen other than in the summer 3. Wearing belts and shoes that don’t match 4. Wearing over sized clothes

Coach, Reggie “Hang Time” Theus - Maybe he’s born with it, or maybe it’s Maybelline?
There you have it, the brave men filling the metro void left in 2004 when Rick Fox put up the Vidal Sassoon for good.

I remember Reggie Theus from Hang Time tv show. That was a good show. I think Reggie and Rick Fox look like twins almost.

Now, who would make the NBA’s All-Burly Team? May I suggest Pau Gasol?
