I’ve seen about 100 articles dedicated to the ugly players in the NBA.   In fact, I’m pretty sure I’ve done one myself.  However, I believe I’m quite secure in my own manhood that I can admit when a man is handsome.  In fact I’ll go as far as to say “damn, that guy is pretty handsome” from time to time.

Oh come on guys!  You can’t tell me that Taye Diggs doesn’t make you all tingly.  OK maybe he doesn’t but the dude is still good looking.  With that said, while we’re years ahead of slick dudes like Michael Jordan and Dominique Wilkins (and Larry Bird?  No), the National Basketball Assocation does have its fair share of good looking guys.

So without further delay, may I present my best effort at compiling the 10 most handsome current players in the NBA.

Leon Powe - Boston Celtics

Powe is just stylin’ isn’t he?  What a badass.

Kobe Bryant - Los Angeles Lakers

I’d say Bryant is more groomed and GQ than anyone on this list.  So I suppose handsome is to follow.

Antonio McDyess - Detroit Pistons

He’s got that old school smile.  Plus I met him in an airport, so he’s on this list.

Emeka Okafor - Charlotte Bobcats

I mean the guy was voted one of the top 50 most beautiful people.  Okafor is a layup for this list.   What a pretty boy.

Dwayne Wade - Miami Heat

About as cool as they come.   Also in the GQ top 50.  And now that he’s single?  Watch out ladies.Wally Szczerbiak - Cleveland Cavaliers

You guys LOVE this picture

It’s one of two routes with Wally.  The ladies seem to love him so he’s earned his spot.   Though I think he’s kind of weird looking.

Rashard Lewis - Orlando Magic

Don’t ask why but me and my fellas call him LEMS.  His skin’s a bit rough but the man is studly.

Tony Parker - San Antonio Spurs

Awwwwwww.

Danilo Gallinari - New York Knicks

The Rooster!  Caawwwww!

Kelenna Azibuke - Golden State Warriors

This guy could be an Abercrombie model in about 5 seconds.

Honorable Mention to Gilbert Arenas, Ray Allen, and Chris Paul
