Sunday for America is full of action. The world of sports engulfs the audience as one after the other, the NFL and the NBA come to life. Pure entertainment! But for a change, the basketball stars are shifting their attention to the football fields as their favorite teams are out for some sporting drama. Well, LeBron James, deserves a little break after his outstanding show against the Sacramento Kings on Friday. Age is just a number for the soon-to-be 40YO beast.
As an NFL fan, Sunday Night Football is everything for the likes of LeBron James. So, channeling his inner ‘junkie’ the Los Angeles Lakers superstar sat before the television to watch some football. Bron shared his updates on his Instagram Story. You could see the screen split into multiple screens, each showing a different game.
Surely, LeBron James is focusing on the Cleveland Browns who are facing with Cincinnati Bengals. And just to let you know, the Browns are having quite a tumultuous run currently, with a 3-11 record. Nonetheless, James’ support won’t wane for sure!

But wait, LeBron’s focus is also on the Washington Commanders vs. Philadelphia Eagles game! He has a favorite star, the 27-year-old running back Saquon Barkley. And well, the $37.7 million prodigy is not failing to surprise basketball’s King. The Eagles star has been turning some heads this season with his consistency, therefore it’s not surprising to know that his maneuvers on the field forced LeBron James to take to his X handle with ” SAQUON!!!!⚡⚡⚡”
Meanwhile, American wrestling legend Ric Flair took his moment to praise LeBron on his X handle. After an excellent 32-point game vs. the Kings, the 20x All-Star surely reminded the detractors that he has the potential to stir the game to his rhythm. However, James hasn’t yet reacted to the legend.
Ric Flair’s unique LeBron James celebration on X
Just when you think this is it for LeBron James, the 39-year-old bounces back. Of course, there have been consistency issues in the recent games, but it’s the King of the Court we’re talking about. And on Friday, Bron truly showed why he continues to be a terror on the court to this day. A 32-point game, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists helped the Los Angeles Lakers snatch the game away from DeMar DeRozan‘s Sacramento.

Besides, LeBron James clocked his 57,447th minutes against the Kings thus surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s long-standing 57,446 minutes record. Therefore, 75-year-old wrestling legend Ric Flair took to his X handle and shared:

It wouldn’t be surprising to see LeBron James play even in 2030 (a bit unrealistic, though!). Moreover, Ric Flair has yet to receive the NBA legend’s response. That should swoop in soon because, as we know, LeBron never misses out on thanking those who appreciate as well as diss him. Meanwhile, we’ll leave Bron to enjoy his NFL moment, savoring the delight of watching Saquon Barkley in action for the Eagles.
