Young star for the Portland Trailblazers Anfernee Simons joins us to talk about how he went 0-100 with his tattoos.

Ant always told others he wouldn’t get any tattoos, so when he showed up to training camp with a full sleeve it was a huge surprise for everyone. Ant wanted to go all out.

The thought process behind the tattoos are what’s important, that’s what he admires in someone like Dame and his tats.

When we look at his sleeve it draws from his upbringing, it starts with the “praying hands” that match his dad’s tattoo to the skyline of Altamonte Springs where he grew up. Everything for Ant is about longevity and meaning.

When it comes to giving the nod to others in the league with dope tattoos Ant mentions Lonzo Ball, D’Angelo Russell, DeMar DeRozan, and Jordan Clarkson.
