Watch: LeBron James Walks into Lakers-Clippers Game With Glass of Wine

All LeBron James does, he does with style. When he arrives somewhere, you KNOW it. Friday night the King took that spectacle to new heights when he walked into Staples Center with a glass of red wine in hand ahead of the Lakers game against the Clippers. Take a look:

James will not be gracing the court on Friday night, so, instead of a basketball, he decided to take a glass of wine in his hand. He needs rest after slipping on the court and suffering a left groin strain midway through the third quarter of Tuesday’s Christmas Day game against the Warriors. While James’s MRI revealed no structural damage, the All-NBA forward is expected to sit out a number of games. The team is calling James’s absence “day to day.”

James’ absence was felt on Thursday when Los Angeles fell to the Kings 117–116, but still sit at 20–15 going into Friday night’s inter-city clash.

James, 33, had played 116 consecutive regular-season games and 156 straight outings including the postseason. He is averaging 27.3 points, 8.3 rebounds and 7.1 assists so far this season through 34 games. This is more than enough reason to celebrate with a glass of wine. Cheers!
