#5 - NBA All Stars (Basketball Players, Various Ages)

Slam dunkin’ their way to the top ten, the NBA All Stars scored the number five position on our list. Our favourites include Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Dennis Rodman. Overall, basketball players seem to have a kindred interest in memorial, script, portrait and tribal tattoos. LeBron had the words “Chosen” emblazoned across his shoulders to celebrate his appearance on the cover of Sports illustrated. He also has a portrait of his son, LeBron Jr. on his left forearm. Kobe has a crown on his right bicep, some filigree and various script tattoos down his right arm, including his wife’s name Vanessa and he’s daughter’s name Natalia. Carmello wears a tribal flamed basketball and bulldog with playing cards in the background. Dennis Rodman has been getting tattooed steadily after his departure from basketball. He now has a fully realized body suit made up of tribal motifs, stars, suns, script tattoos, religious iconography and memorial tattoos. Rodman also has two furious bulls on his chest, which pay tribute to his time spent on the Chicago Bulls. They shoot, they scored!
