Tatum said in 2019 that his desire to be like his father left him with no time for tattoos. His dad, Juætin Tatum, was a college basketball player at St. Louis University, and he had his own collection of dunks, which set a good example for a young Jayson.

But Tatum didn’t decide to publish his works until right before his retirement in 2017. His candied confession that these permanent tattoos were unbelievably painful read, “I felt like I would never do it again.”

Over time, Tatum continued to enlarge his collection of tattoos. Notably, to honor the late Kobe Bryant, he wears his high school and college shirts on his left thigh, along with two Black Panther jerseys that form the number 24 above them.
