Expression through art work in the form of tattoos is a big thing for NBA players. In fact, more than half the players in the league represent themselves with ink in some way.
Some keep it to a minimum like Stephen Curry, while others go all out the way J.R. Smith did. Most don’t appear to have much regret about getting decorated, but Boston Celtics point guard Isaiah Thomas would apparently take it back if he had the chance to:
Don’t get tats lol. I wish I could take mine off RT @ShawnMalloy_: Before I die I want to be tatted like @Isaiah_Thomas

Thomas isn’t completely covered in tattoos, but he certainly has his share of them. They don’t look like meaningless tattoos either, so it’s fair to wonder why he has had a change of heart about all the work he had done.
