The Boston Celtics selected Brazilian big man Lucas "Bebe" Nogueira with the 16th pick of the 2013 NBA Draft Thursday night at Barclays Center. The 20-year-old project with burgeoning offensive skills and giant NBA dreams also comes with something else pretty big —his hair.
While it sounds like the Celtics won't keep him — Yahoo!'s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the pick will go from Boston to Dallas to Atlanta — but there are many people who believe Nogueira has what it takes.
But that wasn't the big deal last night. The real story was Nogueira's head of hair, and how he floated a Celtics hat on top of it when he met NBA commissioner David Stern at the podium. The carefully balanced cap resulted in a classic introduction to the NBA.
At least Andrew Bynum probably approves.
