Lebron James Network

LeBron James and his "second decision" announcement had the potential to create an earthquake in the NBA landscape. Instead, it turned out that Bron was simply shaking his table louder than necessary. It wasn't a retirement or a team change. The King had joined hands with liquor brand Hennessy in a new partnership, which has since been heavily criticized. But as always, LeBron has his backers, with Gilbert Arenas being one of them. Arenas believes that James has earned the right to promote himself after giving his 100% to the league for 22 years. He's 40 years old now and is still looking to play a key role in a team chasing the Championship. So, a little fun and some extra money on the side to go with it? That isn't as scandalous as some in the NBA community are making it out to be. Plus, it's not like James was the first to promote brands this way. Arenas, in a podcast and then on X, compared him to the likes of Michael Jordan and Kareem Abdul-Jabba...

As LeBron James hits the sidelines with lingering sciatica in his right side, the Los Angeles Lakers' performance over the next month could determine whether he considers a switch to rival teams once he's healthy. The team announced he will be re-evaluated in three to four weeks. This injury ends his personal streak of playing in 22 consecutive opening night games. LeBron James' absence to open the season has unexpectedly set the stage for a potential blockbuster intra-city trade involving the Clippers—provided two critical benchmarks are met. James is in the final year of his contract, and his agent, Rich Paul, previously stated that winning a championship is the top priority. According to ESPN's Dave McMenamin, James will closely watch the team's performance without him. "LeBron's gonna be watching this team while he's out. And if while he is out, they are struggling, that could lead to the next step that w...

Fans know the care and dedication he has to his body, but there has been plenty of luck involved. LeBron has been an iron m...

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has been dealing with the nerve issue that is expected to sideline him for the start of the 2025-26 season for more than two and a half months, ESPN's Shams Charania reported Friday. Charania said Friday on NBA Today that James' injury "first occurred in late July, early August during an on-court workout." Due to that injury, James "had not done much basketball for well over a month" prior to Sept 29 opening of training camp, per Charania. The Athletic's Dan Woike reported Thursday that James is expected to miss between three to four weeks, a span that includes the Lakers' season opener, with "sciatica on his right side." "For him to be out to start the season, and miss his first ever opening night, it shows an admission by him and the Lakers that he needs more time to ramp up, get into basketball shape, get into the right basketball conditioning that he is accustomed to," Charan ia s...

Not the ideal start to the upcoming season Laker fans were hoping for With the 2025-26 NBA season imminent, stunning news has just emerged from the Lakers' training camp regarding our beloved basketball legend. For roughly the first month of the season or so, Luka and the rest of the Lakers will hit the hardwood without their team leader and starting small forward, LeBron James, who has been diagnosed with sciatica on the right side of his back torso. Sciatica is a type of irritation involving the sciatic nerve, which happens to be the largest nerve found in the human body and is caused by either a herniated disk or spinal stenosis.  Symptoms of sciatica typically include a pain and/or numbing feeling that affects the lower back area, lower leg area, and buttocks, causing deep waves of discomfort upon movement. At age 40, a health concern of this magnitude is something new for James' illustrious career, who's held a remarkable track record as one of t...

The Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James is entering what will be his 23rd year in the NBA, and 8th with the franchise. While he is generally seen as a superstar who elevates his teammates, former Boston Celtics man Enes Freedom Kanter recently spoke at length about the impact James has had over one specific former teammate, in the form of Russell Westbrook . Westbrook arrived in LA back in August 2021 , lost his starting role after the first season, and eventually made his way to the Los Angeles Clippers in February 2023. "It all started with the Lakers, as soon as he went to (the) Lakers. I don't wanna blame anyone. I don't wanna blame LeBron or whatever, but it's hard to play for the Lakers man," Freedom can be seen explaining, via Sideline Sources. The 33-year-old claimed that Westbrook was "picked" as the scapegoat after his first season when the Lakers finished 11th in the Western Conference, missing out on the postseason. Westbrook ave...

LeBron James had another "decision" to announce. Turns out, it was an ad. The Los Angeles Lakers star teased that he would have something to say Tuesday. The "decision" reference is a nod to how he announced in July 2010 that he was joining the Miami Heat. It was supposed to come out at noon Eastern, but Hennessy — the cognac brand that James has been partners with for some time — made the announcement public about 90 minutes ahead of schedule. James' training schedule for the day changed, the brand said, necessitating the change in release plans. "This fall, I'm going to be taking my talents to Hennessy V.S.O.P," James said in the clip. Even the wording he used in that announcement mirrored how he announced that he was joining the Heat 15 years ago with his infamous "take my talents to South Beach" line. Hennessy announced that it would be releasing a limited edition orange bottle featuring James' name on the label and his signatu...
