And to his hometown, which he honors with a new tattoo on his left hand, a drawing of the city skyline with the words, "Sweet Home Chicago."

For those wondering what his new tat was. Pretty cool.

I forget you can see it on the Rookie-Soph game when he was sitting

That was the only time I could see it clearly but still no pics

I'm not a huge fan of hand tattoos, but that thing is pretty awesome

Not a huge fan of multiple tattoos, without a cohesive plan...

But if he keeps inking himself in a manner that endears himself to Chicago for life, I like it. The designer in me really thinks he needs a new tattoo artist, though. A Chicago skyline tat coulda been WAY grander than that 3 building cartoon. And the basketball as the setting sun just hurts:)
