“NBA banned fans from hating on LeBron James?!”: How Lakers superstar’s decision to leave Cavaliers led to league banning derogatory terms directed towards him

LeBron James has been seen hitting the gym at the Los Angeles Lakers’ practice facility early in the morning this past week.

Despite having a star-studded team, LeBron James and his Los Angeles Lakers had a disappointing 2021-2022 campaign. The injury-laden LAL finished the season with an awful 33-49 record. Being seeded 11th in the Western Conference, the Purple & Gold failed to make it to the play-in tournament, let alone qualify for the playoffs.

After his holiday trip to Maldives and Dubai, LeBron has wasted no time in getting ready for Year 19. The 4-time MVP has been seen hitting the gym early in the mornings at the Lakers’ practice facility.

Among a series of James’ Instagram stories was a small clip of a casual shootaround captioning the video “My Sanctuary”. However, that video didn’t receive a good response from Lakers Nation as in the first few seconds of the clip, Bron missed a wide-open layup.
