Nick Young Escapes Misspelled Tattoo Thanks to Iggy Azalea

Ball don't lie, and apparently, neither does ink.

What Nick Young apparently meant to express with his prospective "Born Reble" tattoo was his bold nonconformity to authority, social norms and expectations.

What the Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard's poorly spelled mantra revealed, however, was his tattoo artist's lack of subscription to a system—namely, school.

And judging by fiancee Iggy Azalea's tale of events, perhaps an educational oversight of his own as well. 

In an even more ironic twist of fate, Young's shoulders, pride and sense of revolution were kept intact by Azalea's intervention.

He should only be so grateful she doesn't hold grudges for alleged infidelity.

Prior to the incident, Swaggy P recently revealed to TMZ Sports that the chances of him and Azalea marrying are good.

It's likely safe to say that after sparing him from a blunder of lifelong consequences, the odds are all the more firmly in the Australian entertainer's favor.
