Jaylen Brown Calls LeBron on Livestream, Jokes 'Turkey or No Turkey,' Then Shaves Head

The bit came after a Knicks game clip showed hair product rubbing onto OG Anunoby’s jersey, setting off a wave of memes.

Overview

  • During a livestream, Brown phoned LeBron James for hair advice and left a voicemail saying, "Code red… they caught me slipping. I need to know Turkey or no Turkey."
  • LeBron did not answer the call, and there has been no public response from either player since the message.
  • Brown followed the call by having a barber shave his head live, embracing the jokes rather than ignoring the viral moment.
  • He jokingly blamed a decade of Boston scrutiny and pressure for his hair loss during the stream.
  • The viral saga began with a CelticsKnicks clip from Madison Square Garden showing a dark mark on OG Anunoby’s jersey, as Brown continues a strong start individually (26.0 points, 5.8 rebounds, 3.8 assists) despite Boston’s 1–3 record.
