Where east coast flavor meets west coat style, there lives Aaron Gordon. His closet doesn't sport the electric colors Florida is known for... not yet. Instead Aaron prefers blacks, grays, whites and tans. That being said, few players put together fits like Aaron does, especially at his age. Aaron might rock the round frame shades. The white turtleneck with a single gold chain? Why not. Retro Jordans with leopard print toes? Trust us, nothing is out of bounds with this guy's style.
