Brian Skinner the man — and the beard. Will call LA home for another season after they both re-signed with the Frankie Muniz loving Clippers.

The unrestricted free-agent Skinner and his beard averaged 4.2 points and 4.0 rebounds in 51 games last season with the Clips and this will be his 12th season in the NBA. While his blonde-beard will enjoy it’s second season in the league.

Brian Skinner is said to be ecstatic about returning to the Clippers, while his beard could not be reached for comment as it is currently being detained in a Mexican jail, for disorderly conduct and siphoning gas from a police cruiser in Juárez.
