2026年4月19日周日，前锋/中锋凯利·奥利尼克 (Kelly Olynyk) 身着由好友、迈阿密裁缝杰·阿明 (Jay Amin) 制作的定制黑色西装，抵达弗罗斯特银行中心参加马刺对阵波特兰的季后赛系列赛首战。
2013-14赛季在波士顿度过新秀年时，奥利尼克就体会到了老将队友提携年轻球员是多么暖心。
“我的老大哥之一是拉简·隆多 (Rajon Rondo)，”奥利尼克说道，“有一天，隆多给我打电话说：‘来我家见我。’”
当奥利尼克赶到时，他发现一位裁缝正等着为他量体裁制西装。近年来，奥利尼克一直在传承隆多的这份善意，为他的新秀队友们赠送西装。
去年7月从华盛顿被交易至马刺后，奥利尼克原计划在赛季结束前为新秀迪伦·哈珀 (Dylan Harper) 和卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 赠送西装。但在马刺于3月19日锁定季后赛席位后，这位征战了13个赛季的大个子有了不同的想法。
“当我们打进季后赛时，我想，‘你知道吗？干脆给每个人都整一套吧，’”他说道。
周日晚上，奥利尼克的慷慨之举得以展现。马刺全队身着时尚的黑色定制西装抵达弗罗斯特银行中心，准备迎接与波特兰的季后赛首战。这些西装出自迈阿密高级定制裁缝阿明之手，他是曼哈顿 AMIN New York 的店主，并在迈阿密和新泽西州的霍博肯设有展厅。
奥利尼克表示，黑色西装代表着“这支球队团结一心、并肩作战的方式”。他花费了超过3.6万美元，为全队18人名单中的每一位成员都添置了行头。
“（前锋）凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson) 之前说过很多次，‘我们所做的一切，都是大家一起行动，’”周一训练结束后，奥利尼克告诉《圣安东尼奥快报》。
作为队中少数拥有季后赛深入经验的球员——他曾助力迈阿密杀入2020年总决赛——奥利尼克希望马刺能以比以往任何时候都更加团结的姿态开启季后赛之旅。
“我觉得对于这些年轻人来说，很多事情他们还没经历过，所以并不了解，”奥利尼克说，“季后赛是完全不同的。那是公事公办。你必须团结一致，屏蔽外界的一切干扰。我们必须拧成一股绳。所以我想，‘咱们做点什么吧。大家一起行动，向所有人展示我们已经准备好了，我们已经登场，蓄势待发。’”
对阿明来说，实现这个想法并不容易。这位土生土长的多伦多人在2018年至2021年效力热火期间与奥利尼克结下了深厚友谊。在马刺锁定季后赛席位后，奥利尼克告诉阿明，他大约需要在两周内拿到西装。
“我当时心想，‘两周？’”阿明说道，“我们制作一套西装通常需要三周时间。”
但41岁的阿明接受了挑战并立即投入工作，因为他非常看重与奥利尼克的交情。
“我们已经变得非常亲近，”阿明说，“我参加了他的婚礼，他是那种让人很难不喜欢的家伙。”
第一步是趁球员们3月23日在迈阿密客场挑战热火时进行量体。上周在圣安东尼奥的一个休息日里，阿明亲自进行了试穿和调整。
“这显然是一次非常紧迫的任务，压力很大，但我们最终还是完成了，”阿明说道，他还额外赠送了衬衫作为礼物。
“我为我的团队感到非常自豪。我们都付出了额外努力，我们将长期以此为傲。”
这些西装深受球员们喜爱。周日，他们以111-98击败了开拓者队，而那天恰好也是奥利尼克的35岁生日。
“这就是凯利，”马刺球星文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 在赛后新闻发布会上被问及西装时笑着说道，“顺便说一句，祝他生日快乐。他主动发起提议让我们穿上统一的服装。这很好，是一次很棒的团队建设。”
约翰逊平时更习惯穿靴子、牛仔裤和戴牛仔帽——这身装扮非常符合他在伯尼拥有一座农场主的身份——他表示，周日可能是自2019年布鲁克林选秀大会上穿着全白西装配黑色领结以来，他第一次穿西装。
“这太棒了，”谈到奥利尼克的礼物时他说道，“我觉得大家都整齐划一。这对球队来说是一个巨大的凝聚力体现。我们喜欢一起做事，一起寻找乐趣并享受其中。看到每个人都穿上西装并穿出自己的风格，这种感觉很好。”
奥利尼克的配饰包括墨镜和反戴的棒球帽，虽然直到周日比赛的最后一分钟才登场，但他认为，通过确保每个人都西装革履、神采奕奕，他为球队进入季后赛的信心做出了贡献。
“穿得帅，感觉好，打得棒，”他说道。

Kelly Olynyk spent $36,000 on Spurs’ custom-made black playoff suits
Forward/center Kelly Olynyk arrives at the Frost Bank Center for Game 1 of the Spurs’ playoff series with Portland on Sunday, April 19, 2026 dressed in a custom-made black suit made by his friend, Miami-based tailor Jay Amin.
Kelly Olynyk learned as a rookie with Boston in 2013-14 how nice it is for younger players to have a veteran teammate help them out.
“One of my vets was Rajon Rondo,” Olynyk said. “And one day Rondo called me and said, ‘Meet me at my house.’”
When Olynyk arrived, he found a tailor waiting for him to take his measurements for a custom-made suit. In recent years, Olynyk has been paying Rondo’s kindness forward by gifting suits to his rookie teammates.
Traded last July to the Spurs from Washington, Olynyk planned to give suits to rookies Dylan Harper and Carter Bryant before season’s end, but after the Spurs clinched a playoff berth on March 19, the 13th-year big man came up with a different plan.
“When we made the playoffs, I was like, ‘You know what? Let’s do it for everybody,’” he said.
Olynyk’s largesse was on display Sunday night when the Spurs arrived at the Frost Bank Center for Game 1 of their playoff series with Portland dressed in stylish black custom-tailored suits created by Miami-based bespoke tailor Jay Amin, owner of AMIN New York in Manhattan and his other showrooms in Miami and Hoboken, New Jersey.
The black suits represent “the way this team is united and together,” Olynyk said. He spent more than $36,000 to outfit the entire 18-man roster.
“(Forward) Keldon (Johnson) said it a bunch of times before, ‘Everything we do, we do together,’” Olynyk told the San Antonio Express-News after practice Monday.
As one of the few players on the team with deep-run playoff experience after helping Miami reach the 2020 Finals, Olynyk wanted the Spurs to enter the postseason more united than ever.
“I thought with a lot of these guys, they don’t know what they don’t know,” Olynyk said. “The playoffs are different. It’s a business. You got to be together. You got to block out everything else. We’ve got to be united. So I thought, ‘Let’s do something. Let’s do it together and show everybody we’re here, we’ve arrived and we’re ready to go.’”
Making it happen wasn’t easy for Amin, who became friends with Olynyk when the Toronto native played with the Heat for four seasons from 2018-2021. After the Spurs clinched their playoff berth, Olynyk told Amin he needed the suits in roughly two weeks.
"I was like, ‘Two weeks?’ " Amin said. “It usually takes us three to make a suit.”
But Amin, 41, accepted the challenge and got to work because he thinks that much of Olynyk.
“We have become super close,” Amin said. “I was at his wedding and he is one of those guys that is hard not to love.”
Step one was to get the players’ measurements while they were in Miami to face the Heat on March 23. Fittings and adjustments performed by Amin took place during an off day last week in San Antonio.
“It was obviously a very quick turnaround with a lot of stress involved, but we were able to get them across the finish line,” said Amin, who threw in the shirts as a gift.
“I am very proud of my team. We all went the extra mile, and we will be proud of this for a very long time.”
The suits were a big hit with the players. They beat the Trail Blazers 111-98 on Sunday, which also happened to be Olynyk’s 35th birthday.
"That’s Kelly,” Spurs star Victor Wembanyama said with a smile from the podium when asked after the game about the suits. “Happy birthday, by the way. He took the initiative to make us all wear the same thing. That’s good. It’s a good team thing.”
Johnson, who is more comfortable in boots, blue jeans and a cowboy hat — attire befitting the owner of a ranch in Boerne — said Sunday probably marked the first time he’s worn a suit since he sported an all-white one with a black bow tie at the 2019 NBA draft in Brooklyn.
“It was amazing,” he said of Olynyk’s gift. “I feel like everybody was in unison. It was a big connective thing for the team. We like to do everything together and have fun and enjoy it. And it was good to see everybody dressed up in suits and putting their own spin on it.”
Olynyk, whose accessories included sunglasses and a backward baseball cap, didn’t get into Sunday’s game until the final minute, but he thought he contributed to the team’s confidence entering the postseason by making sure they were all sharp-dressed men.
“Look good, feel good, play good,” he said.
