Lakers guard D’Angelo Russell and actor Jamie Foxx have developed quite the friendship.
In fact, according to TMZ, that bond helped Russell decide to purchase a $5,000 lambskin, feathered packback.
The Lakers rookie turned heads when he showed up to his debut regular season game rocking a seriously blinged out Louis Stewart custom backpack.
We spoke to the guys over at Louis Stewart … and they tell us D’Angelo dropped $5k cash for the lambskin bag … which is draped in Swarovski crystals and features the LS signature red suede interior.
Only thing more dope than the bag? How D’Angelo got it … our LS guys tell us Russell was in Vegas for the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight when he noticed Jamie Foxx had one that was similar.
He asked Jamie what the bag was, which prompted the Academy Award winner to call LS and put them in touch with Russell. Money was exchanged … and the rest is style history.
That’s a lovely story, but the bag is out of my price range, and it’s just not my style.
