LeBron James is often found active on social media, sharing his activities or posts he can relate to. Saturday was no different when the Lakers’ legend took a break from his busy USAB schedule to share a story on Instagram, which he found “hilarious.” Though there is some alleged animosity between him and former NBA player Kevin Garnett, the Lakers’ star didn’t hesitate to show his reaction to the Celtics player’s video.
LeBron’s caption read, “TICKET IS HILARIOUS!!! But dead a** serious too!!” along with a series of laughing emojis. The IG clip showed Garnett imitating MLB’s pitcher Edwin Díaz’s walk-out theme in front of his former teammate Paul Pierce on the “KG Certified” podcast. Garnett amusingly tried copying the “NARCO” tune with his mouth and air trumpet, which is played every time Edwin Díaz walks out.
Garnett was spotted saying, “That Mets joint when my boy walk out mor there like he ’bout to throw the strike. MAN! Is that not the hardest sht in sports?” The 48-year-old even showed the NY Mets star’s walk to Pierce, which amused LeBron.
LeBron’s story shocked some fans, who believed the two were rivals. As a Cavaliers player, it seems natural to consider the Celtics players rivals because of their history. Besides that, there is no bad blood between the two.
Also, keeping in mind, the 4-time champion’s passion for other sports relating to the post was not surprising. The pair might not be on good terms, but Garnett has never shied away from confessing LeBron’s exceptional talent and stamina to continue in the basketball field.

Garnett Claims LeBron James Can Play 10 More Years
It is well known now that LeBron James is moving towards the end of his hooping career. While there are constant speculations about his numbered days, Kevin Garnett declared that the 20-time All-Star still has many more years left on the hardwood.
This came after LeBron’s performance in the USA colors against Canada. His phenomenal gameplay with Steph Curry impressed not only the fans but also Garnett, who took to X (FKA Twitter) to state, “Lord! Bron could play 10 more years in a Draymond [Green] role.”
Though it is hard to accept, LeBron James cannot continue for ten more years until he is almost 50. However, given his superhuman abilities, he might still be on top when he hangs up his boots.
