Detroit Lions star Amon-Ra St. Brown had a new look to show off on Thursday night -with the wide receiver dying his hair blue before his team begin their bid to reach the Super Bowl.

The 25-year-old St. Brown sat courtside in Detroit to watch the Pistons against Golden State Warriors, which the Pistons narrowly lost by three points against Steph Curry’s team.

St. Brown as joined by teammate Jahmyr Gibbs in having one of the best seats in the house for the NBA game, which saw Curry score 17 points on the way to his team’s victory.

The duo have a weekend off as the playoffs begin after the Lions locked in the No. 1 seed for the NFC with a 15-2 record – equal to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC.

St. Brown and Gibbs will be watching the weekend’s action unfold with a close eye on their NFC rivals.

They will take on the lowest seeded team left after the weekend has been and gone – meaning they could meet one of four teams in Los Angeles Rams, Minnesota Vikings, Washington Commanders and Green Bay Packers.

The Lions have a bye this weekend, so won’t enter the NFL playoffs until next week

They cannot face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or the Philadelphia Eagles until later due to their seedings. 

St. Brown, Gibbs and the Lions offense, led by quarterback Jared Goff, are the big reason for optimism for Detroit going into the postseason.

They have also been boosted by news that star running back David Montgomery should return from a knee injury next weekend for whoever they meet in the playoffs.

Concerns remain, however, at the state of the defense after multiple injuries to key men across the regular season. 

 Aidan Hutchinson, Alim McNeill and Carlton Davis III have all suffered major injuries.
