George Hill may be a little bored in the offseason already. After his team failed to qualify for the NBA postseason for the first time in seven pro seasons, the Indy native has some extra time on his hands.
In addition to planning to work his butt off in Indy like he did last offseason, Hill has changed up his look.
On Thursday, he dyed his hair blonde at Bobby Copper Salon in Indianapolis.
The result, while different, looks sharp … and also has him looking like Chris Brown, the musical artist he’s a big fan of. Hill turned 29 on Monday (May 4th).
“TIME FOR A CHANGE!!!!! Gonna Try The Blonde Look For A Sec!!!!!!!” George wrote on an Instagram post before the changeover was complete.
His longtime girlfriend, Samantha, approved. “My babe is feeling himself with this new blonde hair! ha but I love it!!” she wrote in a post.

So, what do you think of the Hometown Hero’s new look?
