LeBron James has admitted that he wishes he could still act like ‘regular people’ as he reveals the consequences behind his universal superstardom.
The NBA legend – widely regarded as one of the best to ever play basketball – insisted that he was not ‘complaining about it’, but revealed that there are times where his fame can become ‘challenging’.
James sent out a cryptic tweet after the LA Lakers failed to land Brooklyn Nets star point guard Kyrie Irving, who instead was traded to the Dallas Mavericks.
James is now just 36 points from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record, and with the Californian outfit next in action against the Thunder, the Lakers legend will reportedly be in attendance to pass on the torch.
But the 38-year-old still maintained that having the spotlight constantly shining on him and his life prevents him from being able to so ‘normal things’ off the court.
