As the Los Angeles Lakers arrived at Smoothie King Center on Wednesday to take on the New Orleans Pelicans, guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and rising star rookie forward Kyle Kuzma were seen walking into the arena together.

Kuzma had on a t-shirt, jeans, a headset and his backpack. Caldwell-Pope, on the other hand, really got into the holiday spirit for Valentine's Day when he decked himself out in a ridiculous velvet outfit.

The photo, which was posted to the Lakers' official Twitter account, can be viewed below in all of its glory. Kuzma and KCP's facial expressions alone are absolutely priceless.

Actor Jason Alexander's character of George Costanza from Seinfeld would certainly be proud, as both he and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope would love to drape themselves in velvet if it were socially acceptable.

The Lakers have not played since their heartbreaking 130-123 shootout loss to the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night. They are playing the first game of a back-to-back tonight against the Pelicans, who are currently the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference playoff race with a 30-26 record.

If Los Angeles can squeeze out a win or two on the road in tonight's game against the Pelicans and tomorrow night against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center, the Lakers would head into the All-Star Break feeling pretty good about themselves as a team.

Hopefully, KCP's flashy attire can be a spark for another solid performance out of him. Over his last two games, the guard is averaging 17.0 points on 66.6 percent shooting from the field, 6.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 2.0 steals per game.
