Osceola Magic guard Mac McClung will be sporting some new ink the next time he steps onto an NBA court.

"The sleeve on his right arm features a lot of intricate work ... there's the ocean, a butterfly, birds, and a kid reading a book under a tree which [artist Michelle] Santana says represents McClung keeping his inner child's hopes and dreams alive," TMZ Sports reported.

"The piece also features a mountain ... which we're told signifies where McClung came from in Virginia."

McClung spent the 2023-24 season in Osceola, where the Orlando Magic have their NBA G League affiliate. He was named the G League MVP after averaging 25.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game.

The Magic finished with the best record in the Eastern Conference (22-12) but were dispatched by the Long Island Nets in the single-elimination conference semifinals.

While McClung didn't suit up for an NBA team this year, he made his presence felt in the Association when he successfully defended his slam dunk crown during All-Star Weekend.

The 25-year-old didn't rule out making a three-peat bid in 2025. Nate Robinson is the only three-time winner in the history of the event and no player has lifted the trophy three years in a row.
