Fans love to talk smack on the mean streets of Twitter. On certain occasions, it back fires in the worst possible way. This is exactly the case for a random Phoenix Suns fan, who is now set to get a tattoo on his face because of the fact that Suns big man Deandre Ayton just drained an unexpected three-pointer in Phoenix's scrimmage game against the Utah Jazz on Thursday.
Previously, a fan named Andrew Leezus made a bold claim that he would get a āDOMINAYTONā tattoo on his face if the Suns' prized big man, who has a rather non-existent acumen from distance, ever made a three-pointer. Well, this big-mouthed fan just got exactly what he wished for.

It's hilarious how the Suns official Twitter account kept a receipt of Lezzus' earlier tweet. Once Ayton made that shocking trey, they made sure to call out the fan for his bold claim.
For his part, Leezus appears to be willing to live up to his promise, even if this will have a significant impact on his physical appearance for the rest of his life ā not to mention how painful that should be.
looks like Iām getting a DOMINAYTON face tat š¤·š»āāļø

To be fair to Leezus, Ayton has attempted a grand total of seven triples throughout his one-and-a-half year career in the NBA. He hasn't made a single one, which is likely where this fan's extreme confidence was coming from.
Everything changed on Thursday, though, as the 6-foot-11 center made his first career triple in the NBA, albeit in a scrimmage game. He also produced 13 points on 6-of-7 shooting, along with eight boards and two assists, as Ayton helped the Suns to a 101-88 victory against the Jazz.
Now whether or not Ayton has actually added a three-point shot to his arsenal is an altogether different question.
