You have one job to do when you're a guest at a wedding - wear something nice, but don't overshadow the bride or rock anything too ridiculous. Clearly Oklahoma City Thunder's Chet Holmgren missed that memo when he was getting dressed for his teammate, Alex Caruso's, wedding over the weekend. 

Holmgren and several other Oklahoma City Thunder players, including Cason Wallace, Lu Dort, Jaylin Williams, and Isiah Hartenstein, traveled to Houston, Texas to watch Caruso marry "Big Brother" alum Haleigh Broucher on Saturday, August 9. 

However, it was Holmgren's outfit that stole the show at the nuptials. 

The NBA champion, 23, rocked a patterned white suit with a red shirt underneath and several large chains around his neck, while his teammate all opted for more wedding day appropriate attire.

Shortly after pictures of his wedding day look surfaced on social media, people began roasting Holmgren incessantly. 

"Chet dressed like a Miami drug lord," one person commented online. 

"I thought you’re not supposed to wear white to a wedding or is that only a girl thing," another person wrote on X. 

"Is Chet auditioning to be an arms dealer," someone else said. 

"Chet dressed like he wasn't invited lol," another person quipped. 

"Chet came dressed as graph paper," someone else added. 

"If I had seen this yesterday, I would've sworn Chet was trying to sell me jewelry at the mall," another said. 

Caruso and Brocher's relationship timeline

Caruso, 31, and Broucher, 28, have been dating for several years. The couple, The who both hail from Texas and attended Texas A&M, announced their engagement in August 2024, sharing pictures of the Thunder point guard's romantic beachside proposal. 

Broucher shared more details from the special day on Instagram in October 2024, writing, "I am so blessed with a man who goes above and beyond in every aspect for me. I look to him in moments of stress, happiness, and calm and know that he will be there steadfast. 

She continued, "I truly try to embody him throughout my day. I know it’s cheesy, but he truly makes me a better person in all areas of my life, and I cannot wait to be the best wife I can to him until my last breath."

After the couple tied the knot over the weekend, Broucher shared another Instagram post, showing off her stunning white wedding gown. 

"Forever kind of love," she captioned the post.
