Father’s Day is tomorrow and LA Clippers point guard Chris Paul showed off a preview of his upcoming photo shoot for Bloomingdale’s Father’s Day issue.

Get ready dads, Father’s Day is here. While you may celebrate by having a backyard cookout with the kids or by throwing back a few brewskis with the boys, LA Clippers guard Chris Paul will kick back with his kids in the upcoming issue of Bloomingdale’s catalog.

Paul announced the collab on his Instagram page, posting the following:

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Chris pose alongside his kids, notably his son. Christopher Emmanuel Paul II, a.k.a. “Lil’ Chris” has been a frequent face at Paul’s post-game conferences. He’s never short on jokes, either. I’m sure we all remember when he did the “Blake Face”

It’s also no secret that Paul loves his kids and loves being a father. Season after season, he wears shoes with his kids’ initials stitched into them. Year after year, he wears wristbands that don their names. And despite the hustle and bustle of an NBA season, he always finds time for them and his family. The evidence is posted all over his social media accounts.

Chris Paul is not only the point god, but he is also the ideal family man. He resembles what a good father should be – strong, a good leader, respectful, and honest. It’s no wonder he’s consistently in contention for the NBACares’ Community Assist award.

This will be the first time that Chris has appeared in Bloomingdale’s catalog. However, he won’t be the first NBA player to pose for the fashion industry. Rockets guard James Harden modeled for a 2015 issue, advertising an NBA pop-up shop for New York City’s All-Star Weekend.

Happy Father’s Day, Clipper Nation. Don’t forget to thank your dads, husbands, and yourselves!
