King James bikes too!
We’re maybe a couple days late with this, but this is a very cool story. LeBron James rode his bike to a game last weekend. That’s right, THE LeBron James’s method of travel to a very important game against the Bulls was on two wheels. Apparently, the Miami Marathon caused a lot of traffic congestion, and he opted to avoid wasting time in a car.
I think a lot of people may have lost some respect for LeBron after the whole “Decision” ordeal, but this should help him regain some. It sounded like he even enjoyed his commute to the office. According to CBS Sports, LeBron was quoted as saying “My legs feel really good. It felt good to get open field and get a bike ride in and be prepared for today’s game.”
His bike ride inspired him to have a great game with a game-high 35 points and 11 rebounds on over 50% shooting. He seems to have a lot of influence with other pro athletes, so maybe they will take his lead and bike to their sporting events.
