LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers is no stranger to getting inked up.
Tattoos have been part of his aesthetic for a long time.
This week James opted to get something to commemorate his gold medal run with Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The imagery largely speaks for itself:

Big picture, the Lakers have an interesting 2024-25 NBA campaign in front of them.
Will James be able to lead the Lakers to some semblance of respectability in the new year? Time will tell.
