NBA FanHouse walks through the Valley of the Most Likely; we shall fear no topic.Chris Andersen -- better known as The Birdman -- has a long way to grow before gaining the beard notoriety of The Hangover actor and comedian Zach Galifianakis, but I think he can pull it off (albeit in a light shade). In August, on occasion of his basketball camp in Denver, Andersen revealed to the Denver Post he would not be shaving his beard until his wedding in June 2010. Andersen even quipped that he was "the grizzly bird," which makes no sense until you really meditate on it.
Based on the media day photos, Andersen shaved at some point late September. Bummer. But there's plenty of time to grow it full, as the Nuggets are expected to play into May (at least) again. In other summer hair news, Rip Hamilton and DeShawn Stevenson have both fashioned duck tails (aka hyphy patches aka neckstaches), which proves that Drew Gooden is the NBA's top trend setter. As Brett Pollakoff reported last week, Allen Iverson renounced his Samson look and Sasha Vujacic decided he wanted to look more like countryman Beno Udrih. (Smart move.) Any more hot NBA hair tips? Leave them in the comments.
