The Brazilian made a lot of noise on social media when he was spotted at the Milwaukee Bucks’ recent game against the Brooklyn Nets. After the game, the Bucks talisman, Giannis Antetokounmpo, presented him with his autographed sneakers and the jersey he wore during the match.
On this note, just moments ago, Vinicius surprised fans with his unique tattoo that he shared on his X account. Numerous basketball icons’ faces were drawn on his back. Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant also featured on his tattoo. About 6 basketball greats have been inked on his back to show his love for the sport. The star of the basketball game, Jordan, also made an appearance. However, there was one mistake in the tattoo which quickly got fans’ attention. The Chicago Bulls legend was shooting the ball with his left hand, while fans are well aware of the fact that Jordan is right-handed.
