LeBron James, the renowned forward for the LA Lakers and Cleveland native, recently showed his support for the Cleveland Browns during their away game against the LA Rams. Accompanied by Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, James, who surpassed Abdul-Jabbar last season to become the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, was seen in the stands. Together, their combined points total reached an impressive 77,527 as of Sunday, with James currently holding 39,140 career points in his 21st season.
The Rams acknowledged the presence of these two оffensive powerhouses at their game and took to Twitter to highlight the “whole lotta buckets” in the building, tagging James and Abdul-Jabbar. James retweeted the post, further affirming the sentiment and emphasizing the abundance of scoring opportunities.
Prior to the game, James expressed his excitement for watching his beloved Cleveland Browns play on Sunday, even more so than the Lakers’ upcoming matchup against the Phoenix Suns. Despite the Browns ultimately falling short with a 36-19 loss, James appeared to enjoy his day off. Additionally, he took a moment to congratulate Rams rookie wide receiver Puka Nacua for breаking the team’s rookie record for receiving yards. Earlier in the NFL season, James had drawn comparisons between Nacua and basketball star Luka Doncic. James has shown consistent support for football and has attended numerous Rams games during his tenure with the Lakers, indicating a potential ongoing mutual appreciation between him and Nacua.
