Our Favorite LeBron James Tattoos
As LeBron James' Lakers era comes to an end, we're rounding up some of our favorite tattoos inspired by the King
LeBron James is closing the book on an unforgettable eight-year run with the Los Angeles Lakers. During his time in purple and gold, he led the franchise to an NBA championship in 2020, became the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, and continued to prove why he’s considered one of the greatest players to ever step on the court. Even as he heads into a new chapter, his impact on the Lakers and the league will be remembered for generations.
While his next destination has not been officially announced, LeBron will suit up for a new team next season, bringing an end to one of the defining eras in Lakers history. To celebrate his legendary career and lasting legacy, we’re taking a look at some incredible portrait tattoos inspired by King James.
