As a guy, there aren't too many experimentations you can do with your hair before it just looks ridiculous. Case in point, NBA players. They have plenty of cash to burn, "yes men" all around them who approve their every choice and a couple of months off to do as they please. It sounds like they are living the dream, but for some dudes, it's just a recipe for disaster.
Prior to the end of the season, these ballers have a clean, boxed-out cut, but when they come back the next season, they look like they've been on a couple benders and fell victim to some rash decisions. With the 2013-14 NBA season coming up next week, we take a look at the worst of the worst when it comes to hair-raising decisions in the L. Here's a gallery: The Most Ridiculous NBA Haircuts.

Drew Gooden's Hair Skid Mark
Looks like: It's incomplete.
Gooden's barber got jokes, letting him leave the shop like that.
Adam Morrison's Almighty Hair

There are some miracles even Jesus can't perform. Sorry, Morrison.

Swaggy P got that face on a dollar bill pose on lock.
Dwayne Schintzius' Magical Mullet
Looks like: Joe Dirt
NBA in the front, WNBA in the back.

We would tell Varejao to chop it off, but we don't know the dome that lies beneath.
Andrei Kirilenko's Bieber Cut Before the Bieber Cut
Michael Beasley's Blowout
Looks like: Care-free living.
This is the type of behavior you'd expect from a stoner athlete.
Joakim Noah's Whatever Hairstyle
Looks like: Some girls with sweatpants, hair-tied, chilling with no make-up on
Clearly, Noah stopped giving any fucks about personal appearance a long time ago.
Carlos Boozer's Sharpie Sensation
Looks like: A LEGO
One minute, Boozer is rocking the skin rows. The next minute, he's going to the same barber as Ray Lewis.
Brandon Jennings' Wavy Hairstyle
Looks like: Gumby
Waves on his head, you probably thought you were getting seasick.
Haseem Thabeet's Bird Dropping 'Do
Looks like: The head of a person who got crapped on.
He's probably been told "you got something on your head" by random people plenty of times.
J.R. Smith's WTF Hair
Looks like: The barber fell asleep at the wheel
Swish was still bagging more women than you with this hairstyle.
Jason Kidd's HAIR-style
Looks like: Justin Timberlake from his 'N Sync blonde curls days
Kidd made the right choice going for the bald look instead.
James Johnson's Braid 'Hawk
Looks like: A poor man's Miguel
He must've lost a bet. Right?
Chris Andersen's Partridge Family Hair
Looks like: A long-lost The Partridge Family member
The mohawk is legendary. This 'do...ehhhh...not so much.
Scot Pollard's Mental Institution Mohawk
Looks like: The sun
People probably see Pollard's hair and immediately think this dude's crazy. Funny thing is, he probably wouldn't want it any other way.
Robert Swift's IDGAF 'Do
Looks like: Lana Del Rey
Forget "Young and Beautiful," more like "Young and Insane."
Scott Skiles' Jacked-Up Shape-Up
Looks like: A kid's first haircut
We've heard of getting boxed out, but who gets pentagon'd out?

"Look, I didn't choke out P.J." - Sprewell
"Look in the mirror and you tell me if I should believe you or vouch for the fact that you make good decisions" - Warriors owner, Chris Cohan
Andre Miller's Da Brat Look
Looks like: Crazy Eyes from Orange Is the New Black
The crazy hair torch has been passed from Andrew Bynum to Miller.
Andrew Bogut's Rat Tail
Looks like: The string on a lamp
Wonder if you pull it, if a lightbulb goes off in Bogut's head that helps him realize how bad of a decision this haircut is.
Vladimir Radmonovic's Braids
Looks like: The white brother of Serena and Venus Williams
This hairstyle just feels racist.
Chris Kaman's Anti-Haircut
Looks like: The work of a blind barber
Kaman couldn't have left the barber's chair after this haircut saying, "This is exactly what I wanted."
Andrew Bynum's Pick One

This was just one of Bynum's hair-raising moments last season.
