She brought basketball culture to Arthur Ashe! Naomi Osaka kicked off her 2026 US Open run in pure style, debuting a custom look styled by Law Roach as a direct tribute to NBA legend Allen Iverson! the 4-time Grand Slam champ stepped onto the court rocking cornrows, a headband, arm sleeves, and an all-black basketball-inspired Nike outfit! “Nike said basketball, so I said, ‘you want basketball, I’ll give you basketball,’” Naomi shared.
she called A.I. a total trailblazer who changed how athletes express themselves through fashion! Allen Iverson saw the love and reacted on IG, writing: “Wow, what an honor!! BIG FAN can’t wait to meet you.”
