Ugliest NBA Players of All Time

There have been a lot of players in NBA that have gained more notoriety for their looks than their play, and when you see their photos, it’s clear to see why that’s the case, because there are some really, really unattractive athletes in professional sports. This is a list that nobody wants to land on, but somebody has to be on it. Enjoy!

Nick Van Exel

Nick Van Exel and his wide-eyed gaze helped him see the basket with ease during his playing days. But what good is that in retirement?

Shawn Bredley

Shawn Bradley was one very awkward tall guy. His legs were thin, he had little muscle mass and he had one very tiny head. No wonder he was in Space Jam.

Joakim Noah

I don’t think this needs an explanation. But I’ll leave you with just one thought about Noah on draft night. Does he own a mirror?

Delonte West

Delonte West has endured a lot of criticism over the last couple of seasons. It’s really getting hard to defend him, though.

Vlade Divac

Let’s play a rather hilarious game of “who’d you rather” for our female readers. Divac is one very strange-looking guy, and that huge honker really doesn’t help his case. And, there’s a joke that says that Divac gave scion of his beard to Chuck Norris

Manute Bol

I know that he was big humanitarian, but… There is not another human being that will ever have the lankiness that Bol did, and his tiny head on an enormous body is downright puzzling.

source

Marko Jaric

Marko Jaric must have a pretty big… I don’t know – personality maybe – in order to land his supermodel wife. We all know it wasn’t based on his prolific production in the NBA.

source

Shelden Williams

Shelden Williams’ forehead needs its own zip code. At least we know that Candace Parker isn’t superficial.

source

Dennis Rodman

“Worm” might not be as high on this list if he wasn’t so weird, but his reputation is built highly off his persona. Different hair colors on a daily basis and wedding dresses in the closet don’t exactly scream “manly.”

source

Robert Swift

It’s been a tale of two different looks for draft bust Robert Swift. Unfortunately, the tattoos didn’t help his career. Still mad about not getting your man, Danny Ainge?

source

D.J. Mbenga

Mbenga has one of the ugliest offensive games currently in the NBA. At least he’s got the awkwardly-sized melon to match it at the top of his body.

source

Gheorghe Muresan

In defense of Muresan, it’s tough to fit into a 7’7″ body with a 7’10″ wingspan. It’s too bad his facial features didn’t catch up with the rest of his body.

source

Tyrone Hill

What’s with NBA players looking like aliens? Hill has one of the strangest-shaped melons I’ve seen in a long time. Where does his forehead end?!

source

Chris Kaman

Game, set and match to the Caveman. Did he really think the long hair was a good look for him?

source

Sam Cassell

Often referred to as “the Alien”, the only uglier thing on Sam than his trash-talking mouth is his ridiculous dome.  At one point, Sam and Chris Kaman helped the Clippers put fear into the league for the first time in that franchise’s history… and no, it wasn’t because the team was a threat to win the game.
