“Everything He Does Turns to Gold” – Megan Rapinoe Acknowledges That LeBron James ‘Has That Swag’ in Him

It would be hard to overestimate the impact that professional basketball player LeBron James has had on the world over the past two decades. On the court, he is a perennial All-Star and one of the greatest players of his generation. Off the court, he is a media mogul and philanthropist. He is also, according to U.S. women’s soccer star Megan Rapinoe, really good at everything he does.

The USA women’s soccer team made history when they won their 4th World Cup in 2019. Megan Rapinoe played a crucial role in this win. After their victory, big names like former president Barack Obama and LeBron James praised the entire team.

“Everything he does turns to gold,” Rapinoe said of James. “He’s got great shoes, he’s got a great style. He just like has that swag.”

LeBron James is a big fan of the women’s soccer team

It’s no secret that James is one of the most popular athletes in the world. He’s widely considered one of the best basketball players of all time and has a huge global following. The Lakers star is also a big supporter of the United States Women’s National soccer team. After the women’s 4th world cup win, LeBron showed his love by posting the iconic Rapinoe celebration pose on his Instagram with the caption “mood”.

Throughout the world cup competition, James had been a wholehearted support for the team, especially when he revealed his personalized USWNT jerseys for himself and his daughter, Zhuri. LeBron James also has a professional relationship with Rapinoe and her girlfriend, Sue Bird. The three collaborated through James’ sports media company, UNINTERRUPTED, to release pride month merchandise.

The women’s soccer team loves LeBron

Rapinoe is clearly a big fan of James, and it’s easy to see why. However, Rapinoe is not the only member of the U.S. women’s soccer team to be a fan of LeBron. Alex Morgan, another star of the team, has also said that she is a big fan of the basketball player.

It is no surprise that Rapinoe and Morgan are fans of LeBron. He is, after all, one of the most successful athletes in the world. But it is also clear that they admire him for more than just his on-field accomplishments. LeBron is also a role model for athletes who want to use their platform to make a difference in the world.
