Tonight, the lives of 60 young men will change forever when they’re selected to become part of the NBA. At least 16 different prospects are expected to attend the draft green room in person, where they’ll be greeted by NBA Commissioner David Stern (or Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver) after being selected by their new teams. When they hit the stage (some likely to be wearing ill-fitting, ugly suits), they’ll be presented with the brand new adidas NBA Authentic 2011 Draft Cap.

However, before the festivities even kick off, you can represent your favorite team by purchasing one of the new caps for yourself. The hat features raised team embroidery over a gradient sublimation print, which gives it an authentic Draft Day look. Embroidered on the back of the hats is the official NBA logo. All 30 teams are available at Eastbay today.
