Jaylen Brown's struggles with his hairline led to quite a sequence of moments recently: Black stuff from his head rubbed off on OG Anunoby's jersey, leading to him shaving his head on a livestream and leaving a message for LeBron James asking if he should go to Turkey for a hair transplant.

Fast-forward to Wednesday's Boston Celtics win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, in which Brown amassed 30 points, five rebounds and four assists. NBC Sports Boston announcer Drew Carter described one of his baskets with this gem: “[He] went flying to the basket like he’ll be flying to Turkey at some point this season.”

LOL! Too funny.

Hopefully Brown found that funny too.
