I don't see why players just can't go with this look and make them really difficult to shoot over. They wouldn't even need to extend their arms out just stick out their head to cover the offensive players' head with their hair.

Next step, colossal peacock-flayed sideways mohawks

I'd expect that there is a limit to the mechanical accessories that you can stick into your hair.

Without support that do is coming down pretty quick in a game and now its your problem.

This is the next shift in defensive strategy

Imagine the Kornet Kontest with this hair-do. DPOY easy.

Marge Simpson would get a contract.

Luke Kornet reading this thread like, what if…..

What happens when they measure NBA heights, does the official have to press your hair down? Or do players just submit their own heights anyway?

A player like that would be blocking his own shot

Good call. Someone should in fact try this. But if it's not fashionable, they won't.

I always wondered if Jalen Greens hair impacts his shot or layups at all. But I guess he just heaves it up there in front of him without ever going above his head

I see the NBA's going to have sports' first-ever performance-enhancing wigs scandal in the next few years.

Elfrid Payton is reading this thread plotting his return to the league as we speak. Just has to grow it up not forward this time.

Josh Childress' afro alone averaged 1.2 blocks per game back in 2007

Everybody's hands are sweating so the ball must be insanely sweaty probably. So if you did block shots with your hair, that would be insane because hair absorbs sweat. In fact just overall if you play basketball with a lot of hair then you will be receiving sweat from all players into your hair. Steven Adams is the poster child for that.

I have a cousin who didn't like Lonnie Walker when he came out cuz she thought his hair was an unfair defensive advantage lol
