Lakers newcomer Malik Monk has had some decent shooting nights lately for his team. In his most recent appearance, he started for the purple and gold and had 22 points.

The 23-year-old shooting guard, like many other NBA players, has tattoos. However, none of them are on his right arm. Monk explained why in a recent interview.

“[Right arm is] strictly for buckets,” he said explaining that he took this tradition from Nick Young when he was 17 years old.

“I was in high school just starting to get tatted and I hear him say that, I’m like ‘Oh yeah it’s my turn now.'”
