John Wall of the Houston Rocket wasn’t interested in getting inked when he started in the NBA. Now almost every visible inch of his body has a tattoo. Let’s take a look at some of Wall’s tats and what they mean to him.

John Wall Shoulder and Arm Tattoos

The Houston Rockets point guard has too many tattoos on his arms for us to talk about, but take a close look at the photos and you’ll see some mighty fine inkwork.

On his lower right sleeve are portraits of his adorable sons, and on his upper left sleeve is a montage showing his love for the game. His forearm has the words “loyalty is love” and right above it is a tattoo of the Mighty Ducks’ logo.

His brand “Wall way” is tattooed on his shoulders.

The self-proclaimed ‘mama’s boy’ can’t seem to get enough ink honoring his family, and we totally get that. Wall’s chest is covered in tattoos that pay tribute to his family, including his mother, father, and aunts. He also shows some love to his fellow ballers DeMarcus Cousins and Eric Bledsoe who are two of his best friends.

He also pays homage to his hometown of Raleigh, NC with an extensive abdominal tattoo featuring the city’s skyline.

Every John Wall fan knows that his family means a lot to him, especially the woman he calls his hero, his mother. Sadly, John’s mom, Frances Pulley passed away in 2019 after battling cancer for some time. As a tribute to her, John got two lovely portraits of his mother tattooed onto the back and front of his neck. On the side, he got a tattoo of her birth date and the date that she, unfortunately, passed away.

John Wall Leg Tattoos

John Wall’s legs are covered in his favorite childhood memories; from video games like Super Mario, to TV shows like Kim Possible, to comics like Garfield. If you grew up in the 2000s, you’ll be able to identify all the characters he has on his legs.

John Wall Back Tattoos

John got his first back tattoo, the “Great Wall” in 2014. What’s even cooler is that when he went to China to do a promotion with his sponsor, Adidas, they took this photo of him. That’s John Wall sitting on the actual Great Wall of China showing off his ink. His other back tattoos feature the black heroes Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr., Jackie Robinson, and Muhammad Ali, along with the Black Power symbol.
