11 Must-See Athlete Halloween Costumes
Halloween is a time where professional athletes can show off their creative side. This year was no different as many went all-out for the holiday with their costumes.
Here are some of the best athlete costumes from 2019:
LeBron James as 'LeDward Scissorhands'
LeBron James was not messing around with his own take on Johnny Depp's Edward Scissorhands. Now that James is in Los Angeles, it seems he has all the necessary costume tools at his disposal as he goes Hollywood.
Steph Curry as Buzz Lightyear
Steph Curry's broken hand did not stop him from trick-or-treating with his kids as the Warriors star dressed up in a full Buzz Lightyear costume, while his son, Canon, went as his partner Woody.
John Wall as The Joker
The Joker has been a classic Halloween costume over the years, and John Wall absolutely nails it. The Washington Wizards guard went in the form of Heath Ledger's joker from 'The Dark Night,' except he did it from the scene where The Joker disguises as a nurse.
Dustin Johnson and Paulina Gretzky as Jackie Moon and a cheerleader
Another popular costume done over the years, golfer Dustin Johnson and his wife, Paulina Gretzky, execute Will Ferrell's Jackie Moon character from 'Semi-Pro' to a T, with Gretzky taking the role as his cheerleader companion.
Tom Brady as a Stormtrooper
Simple, yet still amazing. Brady's stormtrooper helmet is as authentic as it gets. Plus, the Patriots are viewed as an evil empire of sorts around the NFL, so talk about embracing the dark side. He also took the time to make a Peyton Manning costume, too.
Paul George as The Night King
The Game of Thrones final season may have disappointed, but not Paul George's costume. The Los Angeles Clippers star is unrecognizable as The Night King in what is surely the among the most intricate costumes of 2019.
DeAndre Hopkins as The Genie
DeAndre Hopkins loves going with the blue skin look. Last year, the Houston Texans wide receiver went as an Avatar, and this year he swapped that look out for the genie from 'Alladin.'
Jimmy Graham as Aaron Judge and Jose Altuve
There's nothing better than when athletes dress up as other athletes, especially when it involves the biggest and smallest player in a sport. Packers tight end Jimmy Graham, who has a striking resemblance to Yankees slugger Aaron Judge, was able to nail his costume with some help from the team's assistant trainer, who donned his Jose Altuve uniform to pull off this flawless idea.
JJ Redick as Lego Man
New Orleans Pelicans guard JJ Redick brings Lego Man to life as he arrived to his game against the Denver Nuggets on Thursday in full costume.
Dwight Howard as Rasputia from 'Norbit'
Any Eddie Murphy fans will surely love Dwight Howard's costume. The Lakers center showed up to LeBron James' Halloween party as Rasputia from the movie 'Norbit' and was reportedly a big hit.
Gritty as 'Wonder Gritty'
Halloween is not just for the athletes, but mascots too. America's most lovable mascot, the Philadelphia Flyers' Gritty, rose to the occasion this Halloween with a Wonder Woman costume, or rather, Wonder Gritty.
