Halloween costume 80s basketball player.. need ideas..

[steved24]

So I live in Los Angeles. But die hard celtics fan. I think it'd be cool to be an 80s celtics player but I'm trying to figure out what player I most look like.. I want to grow my hair out and fro it out and wear a headband.. what players did this? I also need to find retro jersey and the tight short shorts somewhere..

Here is a picture of me.. tell me what player I should be!

Thanks for your help!

Thanks!

I can't think of any Celtics that wore headbands in the 80's?

Bill Walton definitely had the fro working, and he wore a headband, although I think that was more in his Blazers days.  However, he was notoriously a redhead. 



This is a pretty good look:

He's not a Celtic, but I definitely consider him tied to Celtics lore and I definitely see him as spooooookkkkyyy and scary.

A Kurt Rambis outfit should be cheap and easy

I thought of Bill but when he was with the Celtics he no longer looked one of the band members in Grateful Dead

Actually the only other player in the history of the league that I can think of that froed out their hair and then wore a headband would be Ben Wallace.  Julius Erving? Wilt Chamberline? Now he was spooookkky

  I'd think you could add players like Zelmo Beatty and Artis Gilmore to that list.

oddly enough, last year I went as Larry Bird to a costume party.  I went with the mullet version of the legend which made it even sweeter.

I think you're out of luck with the fro and headband, but you could pull off a nice Greg Kite.  You get to grow out the adult film star mustache too, which is an added bonus

its not 80's, but you could pull off a convincing raef lafrentz...just put a marble in your shoe to master the art of limping haha.
