2. ‘All-Seeing Eye’ Tattoo
Tattoo: The All-Seeing Eye is tattooed on the front side of his left forearm.
Meaning: The All-Seeing Eye, also known as the Eye of Providence, is a common symbol of the fact that Luka is a Christian and hints at his religious and moral beliefs.

Meaning: This tattoo is Luka’s dedication and tribute to the year when he and his team (Slovenia) won the God EuroBasket in the year 2017. Roman numerals mention the date i.e. ‘XVII IX MMXVII‘ which stands for 27:9:2017 i.e. the day when Luka won the title.
4. Back Tattoo
Tattoo: Luka has got a pirate-themed tattoo on the top right side of his back.

5. Forearm Design
Tattoo: The outer side of Doncic’s left forearm is covered with the number 7, palm leaves, and moon tattoo design.
Meaning: 7 is the number that Luka wore for Real Madrid. He is so connected with the number as he had the number (77) during both the times when he was a member of Dallas and also when he became the team member for the Slovenian National Team.
6. ‘Tiger’ Tattoo
Tattoo: The portrait of a tiger tattooed on the inner side of Luka’s left forearm.
Meaning: Tiger symbolizes pride, freedom, and independence.
“I just like tigers,” “I said if I go to U.S., I will buy a tiger — like Mike Tyson.”
7. Latin Phrase Tattoo
Tattoo: There is a Latin phrase tattooed on the inner side of Doncic’s left wrist that says, ‘Non-desistas/Non-exieris‘ which stands for “Never give up/Never surrender” when translated into English.
“It keeps me motivated and in high spirits!!”
“The Eye of God also known as the Eye of Providence, is a common symbol of the fact that Luka is a Christian and hints towards his beliefs i.e. Christianity. It is believed to be the symbol of guidance, direction, clarity, and a reminder that God is above all and he is watching us all. Eye of God is better known as the ‘All-seeing Eye’ tattoo.”
No, the “All-seeing Eye” tattoo is NOT a Christian symbol. It’s a Masonic symbol steeped in Satanism.
If Luka is saying that because he’s a “Christian,” that is a BIG-TIME LIE!!!!!
