Gradey Dick celebrated being a top pick at the NBA Draft Thursday by paying homage to Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz."

The Kansas native sported a sparkly, red blazer with accentuated shoulders that set social media ablaze. He topped it off with a matching shirt, black dress pants and a diamond necklace.

Dick was selected by the Toronto Raptors with the 13th pick, which took place in Brooklyn, New York, at Barclays Center.

The official NBA Twitter account posted a video where Dick shared more details about his 'fit.

"So I'm from Kansas. Dorothy has her little slippers, I got my Dorothy suit," Dick says in the video. The former University of Kansas shooting guard also made sure to point out his Christian Louboutin shoes with red bottoms.
