Cavaliers put ‘Welcome Back LeBron!’ sign outside LeBron James and Lakers locker room
LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are preparing to meet the Cleveland Cavaliers at the Rocket Mortgage Field House on Saturday, November 25. James would be entering what was previously his championship locker room. The Cavaliers showed their appreciation for their franchise’s best player before the game.
To welcome its most adored superstar, the Cavs erected a ‘Welcome Back LeBron!’ sign outside the Lakers locker room, with LeBron holding the 2016 championship trophy. This team gesture, however, should have been addressed by NBA fans on X (previously Twitter).
The Cavs’ moves elicited varied reactions from supporters. Some complimented the group for being classy, while others saw it as petty.
One of the admirers said,
“Have some pride and respect for yourself, Cleveland.”
A fan, on the other side, praised the club for their elegant action, stating,
“Proper treatment for the King.”
Here are some fan reactions.

LeBron James has returned to the Top 10 in the MVP race.
In a rout over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday, LeBron James became the first player to reach 39,000 points. The Lakers finished first in Group A of the NBA In-Season Tournament, thanks to LeBron’s outstanding overall performance.
On November 25, LeBron, who is in his 21st season in the NBA, finished in the top 10 of the KIA Race to the MVP Ladder. It’s insane to imagine that LeBron’s career is older than so many other players in the NBA. Furthermore, the King’s inclusion in the MVP competition is just incredible.
In his 21st season, LeBron James is shooting 57.8 percent from the field. If this pattern continues, it will be a 39-year-old record. He also has a career-high 65.1 percent effective field goal percentage and a true shooting percentage of 66.9 percent.
He has been putting up exceptional numbers both on the court and in the paint. In 15 games this season, he is shooting 41.4 percent from beyond the arc, which is a career-high. LeBron is also experiencing a career-high season in terms of scoring in the paint, at 73.3 percent.
Playing at such a high level merits MVP consideration regardless of which season the Lakers star is in. In 15 games this season, LeBron has averaged 25.7 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 6.7 assists.
The Lakers anticipate the King will have a strong game against his old team, the Cleveland Cavaliers, on Saturday.
