Lakers’ LeBron James Dabbles in Golf, Flaunts Skills” | NBA News Times of India

LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers star and NBA legend, has recently been spotted venturing into a new sport – golf. Active updates of his golf training have been shared on his social media accounts, including video clips of his golf swing.

He revealed his new hobby last month when he began posting about his golf practice sessions. Fellow NBA players and fans alike have reacted to this new sporting endeavor. He shared on July 4 that he was just on his second day of “officially trying this,” gaining attention and a wave of reactions.

Despite the criticism over a stiff, arm-heavy swing he demonstrated in the early days of practice, LeBron’s drive was not too shabby considering he’s new to golf. He humorously adored the game while also saying it was “a mind f**k to say the least.”

Commenting on his WhatsApp post, LeBron mentioned that it was only Day 2, pointing out that golfing requires patience and humility to master. This post prompted responses from various NBA players, one of them being Golden State Warriors guard, Stephen Curry. Curry, humorously imitating LeBron’s swing during the Lake Tahoe tournament, later welcomed LeBron to the world of golf, remarking that “the game needs you, big fella.”

Curry’s initial reaction was sincere and friendly. Following LeBron’s early golf days in July, Curry commented on Instagram, “Welcome. We’ve been waiting for you.” This friendly exchange between LeBron and Curry added humor to the long-standing rivalry between these two future Hall of Famers.
