Fan Pays Tribute to LeBron James With Amazing Caricature Haircut

A Lakers fan decided to show off his fandom for LeBron James by allowing a hair stylist to shave a caricature of the Los Angeles Lakers’ superstar into the back of his head.

The hair artist behind this work of art has the handle @Newstyle84 on Instagram and appears to be a wizard with Wahl hair equipment.

The NBA’s all-time leading scorer, who’s trying to win his fifth NBA title, is one win away from getting the Lakers to the Western Conference finals. Los Angeles, who is up 3–1 on Stephen Curry and the Warriors in the Western semifinals, would need to get by the winner of the series between the Denver Nuggets and Phoenix Suns.

The 19-time NBA All-Star has won four championships with three different franchises: (Los Angeles, Miami and Cleveland). The four-time NBA league MVP is among the greatest players of all time, but many fans still contend James is behind six-time champ Michael Jordan for recognition as the best ever.
