LeBron James is now the masked crusader, and it got us to thinking about some of the more memorable masks which have been worn by NBA players. There is really no rhyme or reason to this list, except that the one condition is that a mask must actually be worn. For me it was Richard Hamilton’s face mask which I will also remember, but there are a few more you may have forgotten about and we did our best to compile them.
Who can forget Kobe Bryant’s? Kobe donned a face mask following a nasal fracture which he received during the 2012 All-Star Game.
