In my town there is a barber in his 60s. This dude will only use industrial scissors. Scissors on one hand and a cigarette on the other. You tell him which style you want, but you will get his 1950s boy haircut.

Facts but the way his hair grow and head shaped it’s only so much you can do.

His barber must have good convo or something, cuz his cutting skills about a 6 outta 10

@Ryan Irwin- Diehl yeah of course he will put on weight like almost every one else that makes it to the NFL. But get pushed around??.... you definitely haven't watched him torch every tough defense he's faced in the sec.. he's alot stronger than he looks and gets off press coverage almost every time. It's funny seeing people who don't know football make themselves look stupid trying to be funny. Go look at his game tape. Sure fire superstar who will make immediate impact. Then his level of competitiveness is unmatched at the wr position

[@jermainethegamer5769]

Its good to have someone like him in your life.

[@mickybender7726]

I hope this young brother does prosper and strive towards whatever he wants to reach in life.

[@bamahammer3660]

That is an outstanding story that should be made into a movie. I am quite sure with all of the sacrifices his Barber made to travel long distances just to cut his hair that a new vehicle and some pocket change will probably be given out soon. In addition to also mentoring him throughout his life. Great job.

Yea i cringed when bro said that

[@SarcasticSloth69]

I mean if you look at the trend a taller or bigger point guard is what teams like now. Example: Luka, Lonzo, Lamelo, Killian, Brogdon, DLO, etc. Actually data shows that as the years have gone by, the average height of Point guards have been getting taller while the average height of centers have been getting shorter.

[@Noooo22222]

Average starting point Guard prob like 6”2 maybe 1 or 3
