WASHINGTON (WUSA) — What can you never have enough of if you're an NBA player?

6'7 forward for the Washington Wizards, Kelly Oubre Jr. lets us inside his locker to find out the answer to that very question.

NBA playoffs are in full effect, but we were able to catch up with the 22-year-old player and see exactly what he keeps in his locker.

Just as the headline says, Oubre loves his shoes.

From the beginning, we're able to see the many pairs of shoes that he has, and the many different designs.

His favorite pair is covered with hearts that his girlfriend designed for him for Valentines Day.

How sweet is that?

His second favorite pair?

We're sure you've seen them in multiple games during the season.

They are his shoes that say Wave Papi on the side, and for those that don't know, that is also his nickname.

Even though most people know Wave Papi to be Oubre's alter ego, he let it known that it's nothing other than a nickname.

"I like to wear everything that makes me happy", Oubre says as he describes his style.

He knows that his style is very different than a lot of other people in the NBA, and he feels that is what makes him unique.

In addition to the mountain of shoes, you can also find an unlimited amount of socks to go with all of those shoes.

Let's face it, you can't just have one pair of socks if you're changing shoes that often.

Wave Papi shares with us that he also tries to go to Chapel before every game to worship the Lord, and shares some scriptures that are passed out.

Last but not least, what is a athletic locker without a few tips or notes to go over before you go out on a court?

He shows us his shooting form tips that keep him staying one of the top forwards on the team!
