Andrew Bynum was once one of the best young centers in the NBA. He was on those Lakers teams that won back-to-back titles in ’09 and ’10 and was on his way to becoming a star. Then knee injuries sidelined him, he got traded a couple of times and now he’s out of the league. Along the way, though, he started getting a little weird, especially later in his career. He constantly changed his hair styles, got suspended for shooting literally every time he got the ball in practice, and just a bunch of random/odd things happened as his foot was out of the door of the NBA.
Last night he made his first public appearance in a while (at least that I can remember), rocking the Slim Shady look, and just showed up to the Q like any regular fan to take in a Finals game.
Yup. That's Andrew Bynum next to me with the Rodman hair. He doesn't exactly fit in the chair. #NBAFinals pic.twitter.com/fCpSooTFeN

And he drank a Miller Lite like any of us would do.

So was there any specific reason he showed up to the game? Nope, he was just on a cross country road trip and decided to stop by.
Why is Andrew Bynum at Game 4? He said he's been driving cross country and stopped off in Cleveland for the game. https://t.co/hVPsLNcYPp

All I can say is at least he’s enjoying his post-NBA career.
