One thing that caught the fans’ attention more than others was when Rivers mentioned LeBron James. Apparently, many fans kept asking the 27-year-old Rockets’ player whether he had come across the Lakers star veteran LeBron James.
In a clip from the IG Live, Rivers showed the viewers a large building that looked at least three storeys high, saying that the entire building was for LeBron James.
“Man, I told you everybody keep asking if I seen Bron, man, y’all know Bron ain’t staying where we staying man…. I know he ain’t staying where we staying at.”
LeBron's crib in the bubble is HUGE.

LeBron James was one of those players who seemed determined to take part in the playoffs, though many players were conflicted due to several reasons.
James had also tweeted, when he left for Orlando, that he was going to miss his family. If Rivers were serious about James’ current residence in the bubble, we might just have felt that he was trying to recreate his enormous LA house, that he so dearly missed, if not the people in it.
