Tweet of the Night: Damian Lillard appreciates a fan’s tattoo of him

There are plenty of fans who go the extra mile to show deep appreciation of NBA players they idolize.

Some will plaster their wall with posters. Others will collect autographs, cards, jerseys and other collectible items of value. Most simply buy tickets and attend the games.

Then, there is a select group of people who will go the extreme route: get a tattoo of the player they love the most. We’ve seen some noteworthy art work over the years of LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, James Harden, Nate Robinson, Charlie Villanueva (seriously) and more.

Add Damian Lillard to the list of players who have been idolized enough to be permanently inked on another person’s body:
