“Benjamin Button!!”: Justin Bieber, Jamie Foxx and Other Celebs Lose Their Minds as LeBron James Brags About 56 Point Night

It was a show in LA as LeBron James and the Lakers earned a much-needed victory against the Golden State Warriors. In a closely fought matchup, the Lakers edged out the opposition by 8 points and held on the 9th seed in the Western Conference. Unlike the recent booing that the Lakers had encountered from their own fans, the Crypto.com Arena was in full support for the team, especially for LeBron, who scored an emphatic 56 points.

In light of his heroics, LeBron put a picture of him dunking on Instagram, which took fans by storm as it was unreal to see a 37-year-old play at such a high level.

Fans React to LeBron James

Fans were stunned at LeBron’s age-defying and time-turning performance. It isn’t every day that one gets to witness greatness at 37 years of age. Most players in their late thirties either are in the slump of their careers or have stepped away from the game.

“Benjamin Button u reverse time bro,” said NBA Shooting Coach Chris Matthews.

“Benjamin Button,” said Ohio University’s Men’s Basketball Head Coach, Jeff Boals.

“Nah that was 56 piece bone-in wing platter Bo!” said Kent Bazemore.

In Conclusion

Clearly, LeBron’s dominance took the world by storm. He helped the Lakers make a solid comeback and win the game. Moreover, this performance is a testament to LeBron’s greatness. Even at 37, he defies the odds and makes things look so easy.

For the Lakers, this win was much needed. They now sit 9th in the West with a 28-35 record and will hope to carry the momentum forward for more wins. It’s a tough ask for a turnaround this season, but anything is possible with LeBron on the squad.
