On Sunday, Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball's girlfriend, Ana Montana, unveiled her new biblical tattoo on Instagram. Her new scriptural tattoo comes in the wake of Ball's new tattoo, a red crucifix, inked on his neck in April.
Montana, a fitness influencer, showcased her biblical tattoo on her Instagram story.
"New tat Jeremiah 29:11, my favorite verse," she captioned the story.
The tattoo references a verse from the book of Jeremiah in the Old Testament. According to the King James Version of the Bible, the verse reads:
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end," the quote reads.
The fitness model followed the image of her tattoo by sharing more glimpses into her day. In the second story, she was seen sending positive affirmations for her viewers, while the third was a post-workout mirror selfie:
"Hope everyone has a beautiful day," the second story read.
"Workout complete," read the third caption.
LaMelo Ball has been one of the brightest young talents in the league ever since his induction to the NBA in 2020. An integral part of the Charlotte Hornets team, he has continued to impress with his performances on the court. However, his fitness has been a huge concern over the years as the star struggles for game time.
The Californian native sat down with the media after his team's final regular-season fixture against the Celtics and gave his thoughts on his injury-prone season. Expressing his frustration about the circumstance, Ball still showed optimism about an early return.
"Health-wise, already been starting to train the right way, happy about that," he said. "Go see my mom and pops, and when I get I should be able to work out and do everything for the next season, so happy with all of that," Ball said. [0:23]
