'LeBron James used to call himself King James, it was weird': Former teammate says he was taken aback by Lakers star calling himself King

The Internet continues to show its merciless side. They trolled LeBron James when he was spotted on a freeway driving alone, but with a mask on.

With the Lakers’ offseason sorted in almost the perfect way, they will be looking forward to the next season. As the defending champions, the onus was on their front office to consolidate their position. James will be looking to become only the second player in NBA history with 5 Finals MVPs next year.

Given the context of the stakes which the Lakers star represents, it is but natural to expect him to take every precaution.

Some of them were downright rude about it.

Many aficionados asked which car it was.

They did get their answers. It was a Porsche 918 Spider.

There was, thankfully, a funny side to it as well.

The Lakers star will be back in action for the Lakers’ first preseason game against the Clippers on December 11. With the additions of Dennis Schroder, Montrezl Harrell, Marc Gasol and Wesley Matthews, they have bolstered their roster strength even further.
