LeBron James’ Thrifty Side: NBA Star Caught Using Illegal Stream

LeBron James, throughout his 21-year NBA career, has been one of the costliest players for any franchise to have. With career earnings approximating $500 million, his financial success is just as impressive as his legacy. However, even a billionaire like LeBron can exhibit a thrifty side when it comes to saving some dollars.

Recently, a video surfaced on social media showing LeBron using an illegal stream to watch a game between the Timberwolves and the Mavericks. The footage quickly went viral, as the act of piracy is not typically associated with King James.

LeBron, who has been the face of the league for years, even at the age of 39, demonstrated his enduring talent. Yet, using an illegal service to watch a game from his own league was surprising and ironic. With his $50 million annual salary, the NBA’s League Pass shouldn’t be too expensive for him.

The video went viral, and LeBron faced considerable scrutiny from the sporting community on social media.

Social Media Reacts to LeBron James’ Thrifty Way

LeBron James usually garners attention for positive reasons, as public interest in the 4-time NBA Champion remains high. However, this incident of piracy put him in a negative spotlight, with social media users quick to comment on his frugal behavior. Here are some of the comments posted on X (formerly known as Twitter):

A fan commented, “they wasn’t lying when they said he a cheapskate.”
Another said, “I already know Bronny showed him all the websites,” dragging his son Bronny into the situation.
Pointing out LeBron’s miserly ways, a fan wrote, “Bron when it’s time to save as much money as possible…”
Expressing concern, another fan posted, “if LeBron James does it, its so over for us.”
“League Pass is very expensive, even for him,” noted one user.
