Los Angeles Clippers star Kawhi Leonard sent the internet into a frenzy after appearing at the Gervonta “Tank” Davis vs. Frank Martin boxing match in Las Vegas with a new hairstyle. For most of his career, Leonard has been known for his ‘Cornrows’ hair, which has become almost as iconic as his on-court dominance.

On Sunday, a photo circulating on social media showed Leonard sporting a shorter, clean-cut look with his braids gone.

Fans were quick to react, with many expressing disbelief and even mourning the loss of Leonard’s signature style.

One fan claimed that Leonard “lost his aura” after cutting his iconic braids.

Other fan tweeted that it was “over” for the Clippers’ star after his new look.

While some fans were initially disappointed by the haircut, the internet quickly pivoted to lighthearted jokes and memes. Many joked that teammate Paul George, known for his own unique hairstyle, must be feeling relieved he doesn’t have to compete with the braids anymore.

Whether sporting braids or a bun, one thing remains certain: Clippers fans are eagerly awaiting Leonard’s return after a long injury layoff from the court. The 32-year-old is working hard to return to fitness before the Paris Olympics, which will begin next month.

Former New York Giants star Michael Strahan is keeping up appearances and putting on a brave face amid what has to be one of the most distressing periods of his life.

Strahan’s 19-year-old daughter Isabella is currently battling cancer, and she has been keeping her followers updated as it pertains to her treatment, progress, and setbacks.

Isabella is fighting to beat medulloblastoma, a rare malignant tumor at the base of her brain. She’s undergoing chemotherapy at the moment, and it’s expectedly taking a toll on her body.

The treatment is also having an effect on her mind, as she’s revealed suffering memory loss in her latest YouTube update.

“I’m given this drug to protect my hearing, and just because I have a reaction to it, they give me Ativan. And for some reason, this happened last time too, I can’t remember a single thing about that day,” she shared.

Isabella’s video includes footage from her hospital visit, during which she was eating a sandwich that she couldn’t recall ordering.
