The 2003 NBA draft is considered to be one of the best, if not the best of all-time.
LeBron James was the first overall pick, but Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade, David West, Boris Diaw, and Kyle Korver are just some of the other big names in the class.
The 8th overall pick in 2003, T.J. Ford, is our focus on this Friday, though, as the former Raptor and Buck recently went viral for something that happened shortly after he was drafted by Milwaukee.
Those pictures are real, and they're from Ford's rookie photoshoot at the MSG training facility in August of 2003.
Ford saw the pictures on Twitter and couldn't help but laugh.
While Ford wore the shorts for the shoot, it doesn't look like he ever wore them for games.
Ford is obviously the king of the 'baggy shorts' era in the NBA thanks to his rookie photo, which was even featured on his rookie card.
Allen Iverson was also at the forefront of the baggy era on and off the court.
We miss the baggy shorts era, but thanks to T.J. Ford's decision on his rookie photoshoot day, we'll always remember and appreciate them.
