Do you remember what some of the NBA's biggest stars looked like when they were coming out of college or, in LeBron's case, high school?
Naturally, all of them have put on much more muscle mass since going full-time with their basketball careers, but not all of them look that much different from the day they were drafted.
For instance, guys like Steph Curry and Russell Westbrook look almost exactly the same. Steph's only change is a faint goatee and Russ just looks meaner with that scowl he has developed over the years.
On the other hand, there are guys like Carmelo Anthony, who chopped off his signature braids, James Harden, who grew an outrageous signature beard, and Chris "Birdman" Anderson who has done it all.
Check out these quick, morphing gifs showcasing how some of the NBA's biggest stars (and Birdman) have changed since entering the league, courtesy of the guys at sportsbettingexperts.com.
