Charlotte Hornets star, LaMelo Ball, has recently made headlines with his latest addition of tattoos. The NBA All-Star, known for his fashion-forward style, decided to get inked up ahead of the upcoming 2023-24 NBA season. LaMelo not only got three new tattoos, but one of them is his very own LaFrancé clothing line logo, prominently displayed on his neck.
Key Takeaway
LaMelo Ball, the Charlotte Hornets’ star player, has showcased his love for his clothing line, LaFrancé, by getting its logo tattooed on his neck. This tattoo, along with two more on his wrists, represents meaningful aspects of his life, including his jersey number and a reference to the popular TV show “Stranger Things.” With a new season approaching, fans are eager to see LaMelo’s skills on the court and his impressive body art.
The LF Symbol
One of LaMelo’s new tattoos is an “LF” symbol located on the left side of his neck, near his ear. The “LF” stands for LaFrancé, which happens to be the name of his clothing line. LaMelo launched LaFrancé back in 2020, even before he was drafted in the NBA. Interestingly, LaFrancé is also part of LaMelo’s middle name.
Wrist Tattoos
As an additional flair, RockRollG inked two more tattoos on LaMelo’s wrists. The first one is a “001” in reference to the hit Netflix show “Stranger Things” and also represents LaMelo’s jersey number. The second wrist tattoo showcases the word “Heem” in black and red.
This is not the first time LaMelo Ball entrusted his body art to RockRollG. The tattoo artist had previously crafted a rare angel design on LaMelo’s body back in 2021.
Despite dealing with an ankle injury that cut his previous season short, LaMelo recently signed a substantial $260 million extension with the Charlotte Hornets. Fans can expect to see the basketball phenom, flaunting his new tattoos, back in action when the new season tips off in October.
