If there is one thing you can never say about LaMelo Ball it is that he is boring.

The latest example of this is his massive new back tattoo with a giant alien head prominently featured in the middle of it.

LaMelo’s new ink was applied by Herchell L. Carrasco, AKA RockRollG, at Pachuco Tattoo in Orange, California, according to TMZ.

“Tattooing LaMelo has opened so many doors and opportunities, from having my work seen on NBA2k to GQ,” Carrasco wrote on Instagram alongside a couple of photos of Ball with his shirt off, showing off the tattoo. “I’m forever grateful.”

Carrasco added in another Instagram post that the monstrous tattoo was so complex that it required the assistance of numerous other artists.

And here we thought LaVar Ball was going to freak out when he saw LaMelo’s chest tattoo back in 2019.

TMZ called LaMelo Ball’s new back tattoo “awesome!”

That was, unfortunately, not the prevailing feeling among many other NBA fans and websites.

SB Nation called it “the worst NBA tattoo ever,” adding, “In a league full of questionable tattoos, Ball takes the cake.”

“This is the single worst tattoo I’ve ever seen,” one fan wrote on X (Twitter).

“Bro used TatGPT,” someone else joked.

“I went from ‘does that say dare’ to ‘wait, is he from Miami’ to ‘omg did he actually tat that word on his body’ to realizing it was words rare one,” another comment read.

“Craziest DARE ad I’ve seen in a minute,” someone else joked.
