LeBron James will appear on the April cover of Vogue, joining Richard Gere and George Clooney as the only men to do so in the fashion magazine’s 116-year history, according to an Associated Press report.

Wearing a tank top, shorts and sneakers from his own Nike clothing line, James appears on the cover dribbling a basketball and screaming as if in game mode while throwing one arm around supermodel Gisele Bundchen with Tom Brady nowhere to be found.

The pairing of the NBA All-Star forward and the runway icon was shot in January by photographer Annie Leibovitz.
