Liu Ye Shares Photo with Kobe and Discusses the Watches Loved by NBA Stars

　　In the recently concluded NBA Finals, LeBron led the Cavaliers to achieve a stunning comeback from a 3:1 deficit to take the championship. Speaking of the NBA, aside from the players' superb skills on the court, they also possess a remarkable sense of fashion off the court. Now that the season is over, players spend less time playing basketball and more time wearing watches. Let's take a look at the watches basketball stars love to wear and see whose wrist is the toughest.

　　Kobe Bryant and Hublot King Power Black Mamba

　　In 2013, Kobe became a Hublot global brand ambassador, and to celebrate this partnership, Hublot specially created a limited-edition watch for Kobe—the King Power Black Mamba. Globally limited to a collection of 250 pieces, it is exceptionally precious. This watch is also full of distinctive features, incorporating many special elements to pay tribute to Kobe's professional basketball career: the eye-catching "24" represents the 24 jersey Kobe wore on the court, while the gold-spaced dial and purple hands symbolise Los Angeles' purple and gold dynasty. A black mamba slithers across the skeleton dial, displaying mechanical aesthetics while exuding a mysterious charm. The strap is made of snakeskin-stitched black natural rubber, stamped with Kobe's autograph.

　　LeBron andAudemars Piguet Royal Oak

　　As the key contributor to this championship win, LeBron has truly made outstanding achievements, crowned in three finals. The reason LeBron can turn the tide at crucial moments undoubtedly relies on his usual hard training, and it is precisely this resilient quality that led the Swiss watchmaker Audemars Piguet to choose LeBron as its brand ambassador. Therefore, on casual days without games, LeBron is always wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch.

　　Anthony andIWC watch

　　Carmelo Anthony's performance in the Knicks has been commendable, but unfortunately, he lacked support and has not achieved any remarkable results over the past few years. However, off the court, Anthony has become an ambassador for IWC Schaffhausen.

　　Westbrook and Zenith

　　As one of the Thunder duo, Westbrook performed exceptionally well this season, controlling the ball on the court and mastering wrist power off the court. Dressed in a suit and wearing a Zenith watch, Westbrook indeed gives off a unique charm of a simple and naive guy.

　　Jeremy Lin andTAG Heuer

　　Jeremy Lin's performance in recent years has become increasingly eye-catching, showing significant progress that truly commands attention. As one of the few players of Asian descent in the NBA, Jeremy Lin also has a unique taste in watches. Following his collaboration with TAG Heuer, the brand designed a special Aquaracer Jeremy Lin edition for him. This timepiece features distinctive elements, such as the personal emblem at the 9 o'clock position on the dial JL7, which is a combination of Jeremy Lin's initials and his lucky number—a success designed by him and his father.
