Lakers’ LeBron James Gets Courtside Karen Trending
Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has to deal with a courtside Karen once in a while. That’s exactly what happened in last night’s game against the Atlanta Hawks.
The four-time NBA champion got into a verbal altercation with Juliana Carlos. The lady had to leave the game in the fourth quarter of the 107-99 win against Atlanta.
Juliana Carlos made a mistake
Juliana Carlos, her husband Chris and three others had to leave the game. They yelled at the king of basketball and even refused to put on their masks.
The frustrated fan tried to explain the situation, but she made a big mistake. Juliana took to her Instagram to deliver an explanation, and it didn’t do her a favor.
“So, I’m minding my own business and Chris has been a Hawks fan forever. He’s been watching the games for 10 years. Whatever, he has this issue with LeBron. I don’t have an issue with LeBron. I don’t give a f— about LeBron,” Juliana said in her video. “Anyway, I’m minding my own business, drinking my [beverage], having fun. All of the sudden, LeBron says something to my husband and I see this and I stand up and I go, ‘Don’t f—ing talk to my husband!’ And he looks at me and he goes, ‘Sit the f— down, bitch.’ And I go, ‘Don’t f—ing call me a bitch. You sit the f— down. Get the f— out of here. Don’t f—ing talk to my husband like that.’”
LeBron didn’t mind any of this and the superstar even said he didn’t think fans needed to be kicked out of the game.
“At the end of the day, I’m happy fans are back in the building,” LeBron said. “Miss that interaction. I need that interaction, we as players need that interaction. I don’t feel like it was warranted to be kicked out.”
