Did Marcus Smart and Jared Sullinger coordinate their hair or something? Both of them are sporting some kind of bleached mohawk. I’m not hip enough to know whether there is a different name for that hairstyle but I am DEFINITELY hip enough to know that I am smhing every time one of these dudes shows…

Joffrey Lauvergne 11 Points/2 Threes Full Highlights (11/1/2015)
Stepping into the Nuggets locker room must be like stepping into the United Nations.
