'With me forever': Devastating tragedy behind new Nick Kyrgios tattoo
Aussie maverick Nick Kyrgios has paid tribute to Kobe Bryant with a new arm tattoo, which also features ‘The King’ LeBron James.
Kyrgios, who has been in lockdown like the rest of the ATP tour after it was suspended due to the coronavirus, revealed he received the arm tattoo prior to the lockdown.

In a few Instagram posts, he revealed the new tattoo featuring the face of LeBron and Bryant.
“Kobe and the king with me forever & some Jordan 1’s,” he wrote on Instagram.
Kyrgios was emotional following the tragic death of NBA legend Bryant, which was evident when he became emotional during an Australian Open press conference.
The Aussie also wore Bryant’s LA Lakers jersey before his clash with Rafael Nadal at this year’s Australian Open in honour of the NBA great.
Kyrgios helps out in Covid-19 crisis
Kyrgios has backed up his words with actions, taking to the streets to deliver food to fans in need during the coronavirus crisis.
The Australian tennis ace has again shown his big heart, vowing to drop off food to anyone going hungry during the pandemic.
Following his generosity shown during the summer bushfires, when he kick-started a fund-raising campaign that raised almost $5 million, Krygios is using his profile to reach those in need after he returned to Canberra to ride out the pandemic.
“Please don't go to sleep with an empty stomach,” Kyrgios posted on Instagram last Monday.
“Don't be afraid or embarrassed to send me a private message. I will be more than happy to share whatever I have.
“Even just for a box of noodles, a loaf of bread or milk. I will drop it off at your doorstep, no questions asked!”
His mother, Norlaila Kyrgios, posted on Instagram over the weekend a photo of a table laden with food - including bread, fruit and canned goods - with the caption “dining room or food distribution centre”.
