Allen Iverson was not the first player with full body tattoo's. It was Rodman in the 90's.

Ya but no one thought of Rodman as a role model on or off the court. Everyone loved AI’s play and style
missing John Wall! along with D Rod, Starbury and Birdman Anderson
Dennis Rodman was the godfather of style and tattoos in NBA history years before others including Iverson
he didnt even mention jordan clarkson’s face tatt
those were very 'safe' comments even on bad tattooes

Awful is crazy
Quite safe comments but it’s probably because he wants to stay tight knit with these people so he can tattoo them again an i can’t hate on him for that
Stop acting like Kobe’s tattoos are super deep or special, dude literally got them in response to getting caught cheating on Vanessa
Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali...probably had more pressure in sports history than Lebron James hahaha. The pressure Lebron James faces is pressure he created himself.
Dennis Rodman ain’t here, and Larry Bird is one of if not the most tattooed.
lebrons tattoos are bad, but still nice at the same time idk
Pray That Lebron James And These People In These Things Videos, This Guy And Comments Are Forgiven.✝🙏❤
Odell not being on this list is a crime 😭😭

@@chandler2 this is going to shock to you. In your attempt to appear as smart you complete overlooked what the premise of my comment was. Something tells me not only are you not intelligent enough to make sense of a short comment, you also have tattoos? Hmm a correlation between intelligence and tattoos I wonder🤔. I wonder why people thousands of years ago people got tattoos ? Probably wanting to show off their mums name in cursive, or maybe they want their favourite anime character on their forehead. No, tattoos had a function, they were in embedded in the function of a society and had meaning directly in relation to that society and therefore the world they lived in.
What about Lebrons satanic tattoos?
