Alex Caruso decided to do the same and this time he did a Kobe tattoo.

The former Lakers guard honored Kobe in a brilliant way. It was his way of expressing gratitude for his greatness. We all know that Kobe had a huge impact on all players. Caruso’s new tattoo features a photo of the Black Mamba holding his trophy after the big win in the 2001 NBA Finals.

Some fans don’t like the Kobe tribute Caruso paid

It was a great tribute, but fans had mixed reactions. Caruso earned praise for his move, but some NBA fans weren’t too impressed.

“Not hard to understand y’all… Tatum is a big Kobe fan, but Caruso one-upped him,” another fan declared.

Some fans really crossed the red line and made unexpected comments.

“How the hell don’t most people think this s*** weird? Caruso is almost 30 with another man on his thigh. Kobe fans are the weirdest of them all,” an angry avid spectator added.

“Tattoo artist: what would you like to get? Alex Caruso: Gimme that Kobe taking a dump while cradling Groot in his arms Tattoo artist: say no more fam,” they hilariously said.

Caruso was on the Lakers team that won a title in honor of the Black Mamba. They won a title in the middle of the pandemic and brought the trophy home. Getting a Kobe tattoo isn’t strange at all and Caruso was just expressing his emotions. Not everyone can understand that, right?
