Throughout his 2 decade long NBA career, LeBron James has played alongside several star athletes. Names like Dwyane Wade, Kyrie Irving, Ray Allen, and Shaquille O’Neal have been all associated with King James at one point in time. However, during his tenure with the Cleveland Cavaliers, another player with whom LeBron became closely attached was Kevin Love. Therefore, the now 36-year-old center chose to remind the All-Time Scorer of their bond as the latter gave a shoutout to his two current teammates.
LeBron James recently took to his official Instagram account to put out a post for his 159 million followers. The same carried a picture from the Lakers’ recent game against the Utah Jazz, which also marked Luka Doncic’s debut game with the LA franchise. The trio of LeBron, Austin Reaves, and Luka were all standing at the center of the court, with the team emblem prominently standing out. LeBron wrote a caption alongside the post that read “15 & 77 (cold face emoji) as (speaking head emoji) F!!!!!! Lucky Me! (crown emoji)”. The post caught the attention of Kevin Love, who humorously commented “I was a 0”. A reminder that he was LeBron’s teammate before Luka Doncic. LeBron himself replied back to Love’s remark by writing “(Laughing emojis). On your jersey, but goddamn it champ!”.
Alongside Kevin Love, it didn’t take long for others to react to LeBron’s post too. However, instead of talking more about his Cavaliers teammate, several social media users instead focused on that teammate the 40-year-old recently lost.
