The White Sox’ Luis Robert is an anime fan, and his car reflects that.

TMZ Sports reported that Robert hired Alex Vega of Miami’s The Auto Firm to cover his Lamborghini in a wrap featuring the anime series Naruto. The flashy artwork also glows in the dark.

The job cost Robert $10,000, TMZ said. That’s pocket change, considering TMZ said the car cost $1 million.

An NBA logo is seen on an official game ball before a basketball game, Feb. 1, 2014, in New York. The NBA said Wednesday, July 24, 2024 that it is not accepting Warner Bros. Discovery's $1.8 billion per year offer to continue its longtime relationship with the league and therefore has entered into a deal with Amazon Prime Video, a move that would mean this coming season would end a nearly four-decade run of games being on TNT.
