Jimmy Butler’s new loc extensions have basketball fans everywhere cracking jokes

Normally Jimmy Butler makes headlines for trolling his teammates or making some incredibly timely plays when the Miami Heat needs him to. But today? Today? We’re talking hair.

The Heat forward debuted a new hairstyle on the internet Wednesday that left a lot of people on Beyoncé’s internet confused.

Normally, we see Jimmy with a fade and either a cornrow style at the top or just his natural hair styled in a specific way. But on Wednesday? We didn’t see any of that.

The man posted a picture with him sporting some locs. And not just any sort of locs — long joints. With gold tips! It was like he’d been growing his hair out for years.

No, you’re not tripping. Jimmy’s hair didn’t grow a whole 12 inches in the span of just a couple of months since we last saw him. That hair is, in fact, not his own hair.

He went and got some extensions. Why? Who knows. But he got them. There’s a whole video showing the process.

It’s like magic, y’all. This caught so many people off guard. But the jokes? The jokes were absolutely incredible.
