Some of the NBA greats are phenomenal golfers too. Michael Jordan and Stephen Curry have participated in a few professional tournaments as well. And a few of them have been in charity matches which attracted millions of fans. But not all the basketball greats are good at golf, as a leaked video of LeBron James showing his golf swing left fans with much to say about his form, or lack thereof.

A video of ‘The King’ has been going around and it is arguably not a good look of the superstar. James was seen having a go at a driving range in Las Vegas and he struggled with his swing and seemed to struggle with his stance as well.
NBA fans mock LeBron James over his golf swing
As the video started becoming viral, the fans started to destroy LeBron James. They mocked his golfing skills and said that Michael Jordan would never have been so bad.
Here are some of the reactions from NBA Twitter:

The Lakers continue to prepare for the new season
The Los Angeles Lakers may be 0-3 in the pre-season but they are showing promising signs. Arguably their biggest problem last year, Russell Westbrook, is seemingly accepting his new role on the team. And the new signings they have made seem to be working out too, but it is perhaps too early to make any major calls on the purple and gold franchise just yet.

Perhaps the biggest positive so far may be the play of Kendrick Nunn. He has been lights out from three-point range and has shown that he can get his shot in almost anytime he wants.
LeBron James also got it going in the second game and showed that he still had a lot left in the tank. There’s arguably no one who can stop him from getting to the rim when he is being aggressive. Anthony Davis showed that he still has what it takes as he dominated the first game. He was assertive from the start and showed glimpses of looking like the AD of old.
