Deshaun Watson and LeBron James

Deshaun Watson has made the headlines mostly for all the wrong reasons this season. He was accused of s*xually harassing a plethora of woman after which, the NFL banned him for 11 games and slapped him with a $5 million fine.

After serving the ban, when Watson returned to the league, he looked completely out of sync which actually pleased a lot of people who were dying the see him fail.

However, he was finally able to gain some form during the New Year Day’s game against the Washington Commanders. Although the team from Washington was able to gain a 4-point lead by halftime, the Browns made a thumping return in the third quarter and eventually ended up winning the contest by 24-10.

Watson had a major role to play in his team’s victory. He ended the game with 3 touchdowns for 169 yards and looked in fine touch. Along with Amari Cooper, Watson ensured that his team secures a much deserved win.

LeBron James heavily trolled for supporting Deshaun Watson

As expected, during the game and even after the contest ended, innumerable people took to Twitter to comment on Watson’s performance. While Browns fans were ecstatic, many also reprimanded the ones who were celebrating Deshaun’s heroics.

A major NBA star who ended up getting massively trolled for supporting Deshaun during the game is LeBron James. “Yessir D Watson!! Another one. That boy getting his rhythm back,” James Tweeted.

Angry fans questioned James’ morality after he supported the alleged s*x offender because the NBA star had once openly claimed that he has stopped supporting the Cowboys because Jerry Jones was against his players taking a knee during the national anthem.

However, at the same time, many also came out in James’ support and stated that canceling the NBA superstar for merely extending his support to another athlete is completely stupid.

As far as the Browns are concerned, they’ll be happy with Watson’s form and would expect him to repeat his heroics in the coming game as well.
