Sixers Pull Off April Fools' Joke With Nerlens Noel's Flat Top

By Ray Boyd

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Nerlens Noel's flat top has become a symbol of Sixers basketball this season.

That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but it is definitely something that Sixers fans have come to appreciate and on Wednesday, the team decided to use the flat top to have a little April Fools' Day fun.

Did Noel really trade in the old school flat top for a collection of laid back braids that pale in comparison to his iconic hairstyle?

My sources confirm that he indeed did not, but credit to the Sixers for getting in the spirit of April 1st.

Happy April Fools' Day everyone!
