Andrew Bynum Finally Explains What's Going On With His Hair

Man, Andrew Bynum is such a bummer. Yesterday, he spoke to reporters about the status of his weakened knees, and he didn't have much to offer in the way of encouragement. His left knee still hurts a lot, his right knee is not as swollen as it used to be, and he has taken up swimming. That about covers it.

Bynum did, however, address the issue of his hair, and offered an explanation for why he continues to grow his hair out, and why he slicked it down like a weirdo that one time.

How much higher can the afro grow? "Oh man, I want it to go forever, man. There's going to come and point in time where it's not going to be growing, so I might as well enjoy it while I have it."

Why flatten it like Dora the Explorer that one time? "It wasn't Dora, man. It was ‘Pimp Named Slickback' (a character from The Boondocks cartoon). No, I flattened it because it gets boring picking it out all the time."

We want your hair to grow forever too, Andrew.
