L.A. Clippers’ Matt Barnes arrived at ESPN’s ESPYs Pre-Party with girlfriend Gloria Govan on July 15. Another athlete to attend the lavish event in Hollywwod was also featured in the bare-all BODY edition — Oklahoma City’s Serge Ibaka, accompanied by the beautiful Keri Hilson at his side.

ESPN The Magazine’s Body issue is an excellent reminder that athletes come in all beautiful shapes and sizes. ESPN paid tribute to all the unique bodies in sports for the sixth consecutive year by taking epic photographs of some of the world’s most famous athletes, naked. Twenty-two athletes, including Wimbledon champion Venus Williams, U.S. Olympic bobsledder Aja Evans, Barnes and Ibaka were among the many others that stripped down for the special shoot. Other athletes included boxers, soccer stars, tennis players and even the husband-wife team of X Games.

As for the 2014 ESPY Awards, Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant and boxer Floyd Mayweather will compete for the coveted Best Male Athlete prize. Meanwhile, Michael Sam, who openly announced he was gay shortly before the 2014 NFL Draft, will be recieving the Arthur Ashe Courage Award.

The 2014 ESPY Awards will take place tonight (Wednesday, July 16), with Drake serving as the night’s host. The red carpet pre-show will air on ESPN at 7 p.m. with the award show on ESPN/ ESPN2 at 9 p.m. ET. Stay tuned, and the post-show will feature on ESPN2 at 11:30!
