Lakers stars Anthony Davis and LeBron James paid a visit to L.A. tattoo artist Vanessa Aurelia to get Black Mamba-inspired tattoos as a tribute to Kobe Bryant. Aurelia uploaded videos of their sessions to her Instagram page, and LeBron responded by telling Aurelia, "Until next time! Thanks for having me."
This comes after LeBron reacted to the tragic news of Kobe passing away following a helicopter crash that killed eight others, including his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna. LeBron wrote, "I’m Not Ready but here I go. Man I sitting here trying to write something for this post but every time I try I begin crying again just thinking about you, niece Gigi and the friendship/bond/brotherhood we had! I literally just heard your voice Sunday morning before I left Philly to head back to LA. Didn’t think for one bit in a million years that would be the last conversation we’d have. WTF!! I’m heartbroken and devastated my brother!!"
Davis also shared a message following the news, which read, "Man this is a tough one for me! You were the first guy to put me under your wing and show me the ins and outs of the league. Had so many great convos about so many things and I will cherish those moments forever. Love you forever, Bean!"
