When I read a book or learn different things that I can carry with me, you know, principles in life, I’ll put them on my skin.

I’ll put them on my body that they’ll always remind me to stay grounded and stay humble.

When I got my first tattoo, I was about 20 years old, a couple of years in the league already, playing in the NBA.

My brother, my sister, a couple of my friends, they’re like, man, why you gonna get your first tattoo? You know what I mean?

You got money, you’ve made it, might as well get some ink.

So I’m like, you know, I think it’s about time.

A lot of people had tats, you know, getting into the league, from LeBron, seeing KD,

I thought KD was dope ’cause under his jersey was all tatted up.

But really it’s just my brother and my sister, you know?

They really inspired me to do my tattoos.

My first tattoo was the yin and yang on my back.

Being black and white in America, the yin and yang, it spoke to me instantly.
