Some American teenagers and college students get tattoos as an act of rebellion against their parents. For New Orleans Pelicans starting shooting guard E’Twaun Moore, the ink he added on both arms while attending Purdue University actually represents the exact opposite. On the underside of his left bicep, the word “Edna” is permanently inscribed. On the right, the word “Ezell.” The tattoos are a tribute to his parents, the two people E’Twaun credits most with his making it out of rough childhood surroundings and leading a blessed life, one that includes a college degree and an NBA career in its sixth season.
