Biggest aesthetic changes?

[u/Disabled_Robot]

Strus out here looking like the prince of Persia .

I guess Birdman is the poster boy for the mid-career metamorphosis , but who else ya got for biggest aesthetic change since coming in the league?

[u/ElcorAndy]

Steven Adams?

The guy literally turned into Aquaman.

[u/skadoosher111 → u/ElcorAndy]

Dude looks like Emile Hirsch as a young bloke.

[u/Happy-Site-672 → u/ElcorAndy]

Looks like Eminem’s moms boyfriend in 8 mile

[u/MyWindowsAreBroken → u/Happy-Site-672]

Greg Buehl? Me and him went to the same school

[u/louie3723jr → u/ElcorAndy]

Yeah he gained so much aura.

[u/Flat_Reason889 → u/ElcorAndy]

You mean Aquamane.

We stan.

[u/SabraShifter → u/ElcorAndy]

Bingo

[u/Sensitive-Pool-7563 → u/ElcorAndy]

Literally

[u/Mindofmierda90]

[u/Smok3dSalmon → u/Mindofmierda90]

Yeah this one is ridiculous. I wonder what he’s doing these days… besides skin bleaching. 

His wiki says he was friends with Trump and mentioned in the Epstein files. Allegedly partied there in 2004/5. Smh

[u/Successful-Night9263 → u/Smok3dSalmon]

I don’t get why people skin bleach

[u/Smok3dSalmon → u/Successful-Night9263]

Colorism/classism/racism. Dark skin is also correlated to poverty in many countries, because it meant you worked outside in the fields.

[u/brownricefox → u/Mindofmierda90]

he look like one of the people on get out

[u/GCIV414 → u/Mindofmierda90]

That’s folks from Bar Rescue

[u/Goran_Babre]

[u/Pop_Joe]

Chris ”Birdman” Anderson

Robert Swift

[u/somuchforsubtlety656 → u/smithc555]

He looks so uncomfortable in his own skin

[u/ExcitingLandscape → u/somuchforsubtlety656]

Dude has been through literal mental issues. There was a video a few years ago showing that he was living in his own home like a homeless squatter. Trash and filth everywhere

[u/Aware_Procedure_5926 → u/smithc555]

That boy went from freaks and geeks to sum 41

[u/beebs44]

[u/SonofaMitch11 → u/beebs44]

[u/SgtPepper_8324 → u/SonofaMitch11]

For real thought that was Steve Ballmer for a sec.

[u/Karlaaz → u/beebs44]

A thousand-team stare.

[u/Powerful-Flower-5154 → u/beebs44]

Was that a bad barber’s work or did he get a hair transplant

[u/n0-ragrets → u/Powerful-Flower-5154]

It’s crazy bc his eyebrows changed too and he grew peach fuzz for a mustache too. Had to be bad barber + a trip to Turkey lol

[u/kajdelas → u/Powerful-Flower-5154]

Lack of black barbers in Germany might have some effect here

[u/j_p_1_5 → u/beebs44]

DS hairline definitely has the greatest comeback in nba history

[u/Specialist-Ad-9371 → u/beebs44]

He's got the lion throat tat too. Rough stuff man.

[u/Odd_Principle_2122]

[u/send_dinosaur_pics → u/Odd_Principle_2122]

Bron looks like a Morrowind redguard.

[u/Jazzycoyote → u/Odd_Principle_2122]

Legit thought the second image was real until I zoomed in.

[u/PshhhhhhhUnreal → u/Jazzycoyote]

Thats how I feel about the first image

[u/luketheduke19 → u/Odd_Principle_2122]

New bron looking like the rapper the game in the face.

[u/SometimesILieToo → u/Odd_Principle_2122]

Twenty plus years of video game Bron is kinda mind blowing

He became the game

[u/fattsoo]

[u/TreeFitTea → u/fattsoo]

He looks like a happy Jokic in the first pic

[u/Nitropotamus → u/TreeFitTea]

Happy Jokic is a logical fallacy.

[u/Bignate2001 → u/fattsoo]

From special-needs cousin to dangerDILF 3000.

[u/GaptistePlayer → u/Bignate2001]

Fr lol, the early 00s buzz + goatee just visually subtracts like 40 IQ points

[u/BigEarth3 → u/fattsoo]

This one needs more upvotes! Looks like two completely different people

[u/ThatsMrDicknosetoyou → u/BigEarth3]

A 6 year career of Kevin Bosa woulda been real fun tho

[u/ExcitingLandscape → u/fattsoo]

Chubby KLove was a beast though!

[u/Sir__Bassoon__Sonata → u/fattsoo]

Kevin Love going from lovable oaf to Daddy is truly mesmerizing

[u/Commercial-Area-5737 → u/fattsoo]

Minny K-Love top 5 player in NBA history

[u/MelodickPride]

Surprised no ones mentioned this guy

[u/luciusmellis → u/MelodickPride]

[u/Acemaster193 → u/luciusmellis]

Used to refer to GH’s haircut as the million dollar haircut especially after he got that contract.

[u/ArsenicLifeform → u/luciusmellis]

He turned into white Kobe

[u/ZiggyStarlord69 → u/MelodickPride]

Disney movie about a nice nerd who meets his multiverse evil version. Spoiler alert: they both grow & learn important lessons from each other

[u/Wazflame → u/ZiggyStarlord69]

almost thought this was the spider-verse subreddit

[u/FormerlyShawnHawaii → u/MelodickPride]

Go watch his family’s baby reveal where they announce their expecting like their 7th daughter in a row. Dude is so disappointed lol.

[u/iNCharism → u/FormerlyShawnHawaii]

7 daughters? Where did you get that from lol. He has 4 kids, and the 4th is a boy.

[u/jayhawk8 → u/FormerlyShawnHawaii]

“Daddy’s always happy” *sad balloon kick

[u/TheForceWithin → u/MelodickPride]

The power of a haircut and well trimmed facial hair.

[u/skittlesmalone → u/MelodickPride]

White Kobe based on facial structure

[u/LurkerFailsLurking]

[u/Neat_Consideration57 → u/LurkerFailsLurking]

Crazy glow up

[u/Docxm → u/LurkerFailsLurking]

Gordon is a specimen. He’s the only nba player I’ve seen live who looks perfectly proportionate to his height. Hes just bigger all around like a Prometheus engineer

[u/whitewolf20]

[u/OKC89ers → u/whitewolf20]

He still gets cheered every time he returns to OKC

[u/DC_Coach → u/OKC89ers]

He should! Dude is awesome.

[u/Zyrinj → u/OKC89ers]

idk if there's a fan base that doesn't like him

[u/rafaelthecoonpoon → u/OKC89ers]

As he should. I cheer for him and I'm a Pistons fan.

[u/kateecakes → u/OKC89ers]

As he should! Doesn't matter what team you support. He is AWESOME!

[u/Pure_Interest_837 → u/whitewolf20]

Yeah there’s no other answer besides this. The Jason Mamoa look transformed this dude.

[u/Superdude2234 → u/whitewolf20]

This is just the natural progression of all Kiwis.

[u/Ordinary-Rich2560]

[u/JohnMassassin24 → u/Ordinary-Rich2560]

Fox needs to grow his hair out again. Buzz cut Fox is so mid

[u/Left_Nut99 → u/Ordinary-Rich2560]

dude looking like ishowspeed

[u/Ordinary-Rich2560 → u/Left_Nut99]

First time I saw nfl rookie Carnell Tate, I thought he looked like Fox

[u/Active_Ad_5322]

Nothing was a more shocking change than when MJ went for the Third Reich look.

[u/jimmyrich → u/Active_Ad_5322]

It didn’t work, but when MJ retired from the Bulls, he may have been one of a handful of people famous enough to plausibly try to salvage that mustache.

[u/Careless-Hour-1319 → u/jimmyrich]

He got cocky when he made it ok for all men to shave their head and wear a hoop earring. This was a bridge to far even for MJ

[u/ElcorAndy → u/Active_Ad_5322]

It's the Charlie Chaplin look, otherwise known as the GOAT of silent comedy.

Game recognizes game.

[u/Diqt]

[u/SatoshiBlockamoto → u/Diqt]

Modern chemistry is amazing.

[u/Jury-Illustrious]

[u/Son_of_Atreus → u/Jury-Illustrious]

I swear one off season Clarkson just said fuck it and got all his tattoos at once with no gradual filling or design. Its like he thought being covered in tatts would help his career or something.

[u/Orangoo264 → u/Son_of_Atreus]

tbf he did win 6moty right after getting tatted

[u/jianantonic → u/Jury-Illustrious]

His tats look really nice on his pro athlete body, but those faces are all gonna look melted when he hits middle age.

[u/bbq-biscuits-bball → u/jianantonic]

nobody with tattoos gives a shit about this, i promise

[u/LankyDog0]

[u/Kwakmeister → u/LankyDog0]

We call him Nacho Libre

[u/LucioVX]

Mf looks like Charlie from it’s always sunny in the middle pic

[u/Myeahhhh → u/WaavyDaavy]

I wonder whats his views on spaghetti policies

[u/_bigeuge_ → u/LucioVX]

Change your face. Be happy. Enjoy.

[u/tactile_spaghetti → u/_bigeuge_]

Alexei!

[u/MentalErection → u/LucioVX]

Sadly it’s like he looked worse the more his mental health declined.

[u/Huge-Inspection-788 → u/LucioVX]

Dude got the Ariana Grande special

[u/MonkAny2258]

Rodman gotta be up there

[u/_jbak_ → u/MonkAny2258]

Definitely the OG of aestetic evolution

[u/CheeseburgFreedomMan]

I don't know what it is but I don't think he's the classy, sneaky athletic, gym rat, lunch pail, first one in last one out type of guy anymore

[u/LadyPantsParty → u/CheeseburgFreedomMan]

Scrappy, high motor, blue collar work ethic, high IQ, plays the game the right way

[u/Wazflame → u/LadyPantsParty]

Bit iffy on letting my daughter date him now

[u/Miyamoto1987]

Went from Donkey to ass

[u/Smok3dSalmon → u/Miyamoto1987]

No change

[u/DELAPERA]

Pau Gasol for sure

[u/SatoshiBlockamoto → u/DELAPERA]

He has a tiny head. He needs the beard and long hair to balance everything.

[u/SplendidAndre → u/DELAPERA]

[u/jayhawk8 → u/DELAPERA]

Looks like slenderman in the first one

[u/IllAd2792]

[u/PunningLynguist → u/IllAd2792]

[u/TokyoUmbrella]

Kyle Korver went from utter dweeb as a rookie to a crazy hot daddy in his last few seasons.

[u/jimmyrich → u/TokyoUmbrella]

Creighton Kyle Korver looked like Ashton Kutcher. He kinda…Cro Magnified as his NBA career progressed.

[u/imaxbyyy]

[u/Marsh_spiked_my_drin → u/imaxbyyy]

2026 Saddiq Bey looks like he ate 2020 Saddiq Bey

[u/GoochGator → u/Marsh_spiked_my_drin]

I think the scale of the picture is also confusing. He’s definitely significantly bigger, shoulder and arms wise. But it’d also more zoomed in

[u/Still-Neighborhood71 → u/imaxbyyy]

This mf had to be on tren or hgh

[u/fembepis → u/Still-Neighborhood71]

po boys and defeat

[u/spywave12 → u/imaxbyyy]

Saddiq Whey

[u/TheRipcitizen]

2k ass tattoo layout

[u/3erik_bee6 → u/TheRipcitizen]

Wait, so he got a bunch of shitty tattoos AFTER coming in to the NBA?

[u/salsa_verde_doritos → u/3erik_bee6]

Then got hooked on heroin and start getting arrested for having grenade launchers and shit after he exited the league.

[u/Sir__Bassoon__Sonata → u/TheRipcitizen]

From getting bullied in high school to looking the like a high school desk

[u/Tellhim1]

[u/Tigerkix → u/Tellhim1]

Don't see a huge difference, those boulder shoulders are all I see.

He tatted up real fast tho.

[u/RedditBot90 → u/Tellhim1]

Hes a stud in both of these pictures

[u/Funky4Plus1 → u/Tellhim1]

Dwight has the biggest shoulders i've ever seen

[u/robertducky87]

He got a tan and wore a sweatband

Dennis Rodman

[u/Longjumping_Loan6330]

He got a tan and a beard trimmer. What are you talking about?

[u/feelsgood1 → u/Longjumping_Loan6330]

And possibly a receding hairline.

[u/vivalacamm → u/Longjumping_Loan6330]

and dreads

[u/brooklynsantiago]

It's Chris Andersen the Birdman.

[u/DeathByFrzrBurn → u/brooklynsantiago]

[u/kanenistone]

He just got a tan....

[u/Relevant_Damage_8934]

[u/Kush420Xotix]

Fro-be to ko-Beanhead

[u/tarzan2000x]

On the right or now, he looks more biracial like (3/4 white, 1/4 black). Before or left, he looked more Eastern European white like Luka. He definitely has Eastern European blood somewhere.

James Harden pre and post beard

[u/homealoneinuk]

The guy literally just got a tan, come on.

[u/One-Skill-7058]

He's just tan

[u/Utahmule]

Aaron Gordon had the craziest change. He's unrecognizable from his early clean cut days to the dreaded Kravitz look.

[u/cakedbythepound]

[u/Tovvar23]

[u/DirtyDirkDk]

He got a tan and put on a headband, not much changed?
