Open wide.
Atlanta Hawks forward Onyeka Okongwu has some serious dental work in his future after taking a Jaylen Brown elbow to the face during Wednesday's 117-106 win over the Boston Celtics.
Brown, who was trying to clear space for himself on a spin near the basket, was given a flagrant foul for the elbow.
"Just being aggressive like I always am," he told reporters after the game. "Just a basketball play. It's unfortunate. Okongwu's a good player."
A good player who is about to spend a lot of time with his dentist.
"It's a good thing that dentistry as a profession is, I don't know what he's gonna need, but he's, pretty banged up," Hawks' head coach Quin Snyder told reporters. "He took quite a shot. I told him, he's still handsome, but it's a good thing that people can repair his teeth."
