It hasn't taken long for Odell Beckham Jr. to make himself at home as a member of the Cleveland Browns, and during Game 4 of the NBA Finals, Beckham was wearing a throwback Jim Brown jersey while seated courtside:

Beckham was acquired by the Browns in a trade with the New York Giants back in March, with Cleveland sending a first-round draft pick, a third-rounder and young safety Jabrill Peppers to the Giants in return for the star wide receiver.
The 26-year-old is coming off of a season in which he missed the final four games due to a quad injury, but when he was on the field, he hauled in 77 receptions for 1,052 yards and six touchdowns.
Beckham, who played his collegiate football at LSU, was originally selected by New York in the first round (12th pick overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft. He immediately went on to stamp his name among the best receivers in the league, as Beckham made the Pro Bowl in each of his first three seasons.
However, Beckham's antics began to run thin in New York, as things like skipping training camp, making controversial comments through the media and engaging in questionable off-the-field behavior made Beckham wear out his welcome in the Big Apple.
Also, Beckham has played in just 16 games combined over the last two years, as the New Orleans native has dealt with various injuries.
Still, there is no denying that Beckham is one of the best talents this league has ever seen at the receiver position, which is why the Browns took the good with the bad when they traded for him.
