A Spurs fan made an awesome portrait of Boris Diaw using almost 12,000 pushpins

According to r/NBA, a San Antonio Spurs fan from China spent 20 days building a pushpin portrait of Boris Diaw. Apparently, the total number of pins it took was 11,750. It doesn't look like much on the first photo -- actually, the first photo almost looks like the infamous Nicolas Cage face -- but it gets way more impressive as you scroll down.

It’s starting to look less like Nicolas Cage’s face.

Hey, now there’s Diaw’s face!

And there you have it, one of the coolest pushpin portraits of Boris Diaw that looks like if Game Boy Cameras were still around.
