Payton might not have been selected first overall in the draft this year, but the rookie point guard's hair is in a class of its own.

Along with being one of the best athletes to get into the rap game, Shumpert also has the best flat-top fade in the league.
4. Anderson Varejao
Anderson Varejao hit the jackpot this season with the return of LeBron James and signing a contract extension. How did he celebrate? With this, ahem, interesting hair-mustache combo.

Technically, the beard is part of the whole hairstyle ambiance for James Harden, so he makes the list with the best beard in sports since Brian Wilson.

Reserve big man on the Cavaliers or grown up Hansen brother of "MMMbop" fame? We may never know.

Everything about Swaggy P is ridiculous, and his hair is no different. His tight curls are one of the reasons teammates have started calling Nick a "Young Mike Jackson."

Kenneth Faried aka "The Manimal" is a predator on the boards, which is exemplified with his long dreads.

13. Chris Andersen
The Birdman's mohawk has gotten pretty tame in his latter years in the league, and yes, just like you we're disappointed Andersen didn't have a cameo in Birdman.
14. Joakim Noah
Joakim Noah has perfected the art of the basketball bun in the NBA, but sometimes it is nice to let your hair down.
15. Anthony Davis
An emerging superstar, The Brow is the first and only person alive to legitimately rock a unibrow.
