Perhaps as a tribute to the singer-songwriter Pharrell, and perhaps in an effort to tune up for the extended fashion show that is the NBA playoffs, LeBron James made one of the season's bolder choices over the weekend. Check out this oversized piece of headwear James donned after the Heat's double-overtime loss to the Timberwolves.

The hat, made by Vivienne Westwood, gained attention after Pharrell wore it during appearances at the Grammys and Oscars. Here's how the two looks compare:

The black mountain hat is available for around $180 on Vivienne Westwood's website.
Named one of the NBA's most stylish players by GQ, James always steps up his game for the playoffs. If this is what James is wearing before the regular season ends, we can only imagine what he's got in store for May and June.
