“Fear God!”: What do LaMelo Ball’s Tattoos Mean? Hornets Star Once Explained Every Ink Mark’s Deep Backstory

LaMelo Ball may play in the small market of Charlotte, but the young man is a pretty big name, to say the least. Heck, there is a reason the Hornets have any relevance at all, despite being unable to add to their win column lately. Of course, we mean besides the presence of team owner Michael Jordan himself.

Ball has always been famous, due to his time on the show ‘Ball in the Family’. However, his life has hardly been a rosy one.

Being a teenager is hard as it is. However, having your every mistake exaggerated and broadcasted to the world hardly makes it any better. And yet, the 21-year-old has managed to brave through it all.

Of course, the guy isn’t Superman. No, the man was forced to use coping mechanisms to process everything he had to go through. And that famously has come in the form of tattoos.

But what do they mean? Heck, when and how did the Ball brother even get them?
