A professional basketball player cramming a body’s worth of ink in to a jersey-shaped swath of skin so that he maintains his nice guy marketability is the epitome of business tattoos. Too funny. Gotta stay family-friendly.
Some players care about their image, other don't.

Nothing wrong with business tattoos. If I ever get one, I'm going to make sure it's not visible at all when I'm wearing a dress shirt. Some people you deal with are just too old-school for tattoos, so you need to plan accordingly.
I understand Durant doesn't ''need'' to take that approach, though. But still.

How dare this dude maintain his marketability by not getting tattoos on his face and arms.

I thought he was selling ad space on his body from reading the title

Something doesn't seem right, here. Either his head is misshapen, or that's not his body.

Kevin Durant few yreas ( or month?) before.
Then this year in the playoffs.
That's not a fake, this is his body and tatoos.

Lol, I was thinking the same thing. I'd think he would have a leaner torso than that.

I think it's the way his body is positioned. But I don't see what's wrong with not showing the Tate all over the place like most NBA players. He doesn't want to be called a stereotypical black basketball player

This is a business tattoo. Not only did earn Sheed and Nike some $$, it brought on a lawsuit from the artist for unlicensed use of his art.
