It may be time to change Boston Celtics guard Evan Turner's nickname from "The Villain" to "The Extraterrestrial."

Here's Turner flashing his cool "E.T." chain after Boston's takedown of the Chicago Bulls on Saturday. Turner dropped a team-high 19 points in the win.

Speaking to Jay King of MassLive, Turner revealed that he designed the chain himself:

I tried to make something that was too girly one night. It was like a coin and it was with my mom's name on it. And her name's Iris, so it's an iris flower. And it came out looking too girly, so I gave it to my mom. 

So I was like, I've gotta make something for me. And the "E.T." theme was dope, and I was like, I think this would be definitely dope. It kind of shows my personality too with it, so I like it. It will be a family heirloom.
