Putting 2017 haircuts on old NBA legends is low key genius
There’s no arguing that basketball is one of the biggest sports in America. Everything about the sport is mesmerizing, from the crossovers to the dunks and the NBA is one of the fastest-growing sports in the world.
Let’s be honest, we all do a little crossover as we walk down the crowded streets of NYC or pretend to take a buzzer beater with crumpled paper.
There’s so much history in the NBA, there could be endless discussion about championships, MVPs, or even who’s really the GOAT.
But there was one question no one dared to ask until now. What would some of the NBA’s greatest players hair look like if they were entering the league now?
A brave man named Tyson Beck decided to finally answer this question.
Beck is a Digital Artist and Graphic Designer for the NBA as well as other organizations. He makes those crazy player edits that you’ve probably seen before.

The amount of effort he puts into his work is no joke, that’s some real talent. Definitely give him a follow, especially if you’re a fan of the game.
Here are some of our favorite edits from his Old Faces Fresh Cuts collection.
