Celtics' Olynyk's haircut has a very real impact on his performance

Published Jan. 26, 2016 10:51 a.m. ET

Boston Celtics forward Kelly Olynyk is having a breakout season. His three-point shot has finally turned into a deadly weapon, and few bigs his size are as graceful with the ball in their hands. 

It's one of the many promising developments Boston's experiencing this year, but there's a good chance things can get even better. 

All Olynyk has to do is never let his hair down ever again. Seriously.

Well, case closed! Keep your hair tied up in a bun, Kelly! There's a totally logical explanation for all this. Maybe his hair sometimes gets in his eye when he's shooting, or he hesitates on drives to the basket because he's afraid a defender will accidentally grab his glorious mane and forget to let go. 

All these explanations make perfect sense. But they're also irrelevant. For the first time in human history, we have actual data that supports someone rocking a man bun on a basketball court. No more questions are necessary.
