As one of the league's preeminent pass-first point guards, Ricky Rubio hunts for assists like a predator going in for the kill. It's only fitting that his body art matches his mentality on the hardcourt.
The Minnesota Timberwolves' point guard took to Instagram to show off his new ink - a huge tattoo of a lion that extends from his right shoulder to his elbow.
Tricky Ricky joins Toronto Maple Leafs budding superstar Auston Matthews as the second pro athlete to opt for the jungle cat motif this week. Move over, fidget spinners, there's a new (very painful and very permanent) trend in town!
