X users had mixed reactions to LeBron James posting videos on his Instagram story while driving on a California freeway early on Thursday morning.

The Lakers star posted four slides with one hand on the wheel while cruising on the interstate. Each slide featured a different R&B song playing as he drove on.

While many users trolled James with jokes and movie references, others were unhappy about him recording for his social media while driving at high speeds. Meanwhile, several laughed about his driving gloves.

‘Gross precedent set by Lebron that being on your phone while driving is okay,’ one user wrote. ‘Not my goat.’

‘Why does LeBron have driving gloves,’ another added.

Fans trolled James for his driving gloves while others blasted him for recording on the wheel

A third user said the clip ‘Reminds me of the driving montage from Rocky IV when he’s deciding if he’s going to Russia to fight Ivan Drago or not.’

Other comments joked that James was kicked out by his wife Savannah after screenshots of the four-time NBA Champion’s encounter with his boss – Lakers president Jeanie Buss – became meme material.

The snaps from a court-side conversation portray Buss with her head resting on James’ shoulder. In the same encounter, another woman was captured with her hands on James’ arms.

Other fans, meanwhile, pointed out how he was most likely driving home from the airport after suffering a 107-120 loss against the Kings in Sacramento.

‘LeBron randomly driving around after losing to the Kings,’ one fan wrote.

‘[Domantas] Sabonis and [Harrison] Barnes got my franchise player driving on the freeway at 1 AM listening to R&B,’ another joked.

James and the Lakers lost, 107-120, to the Sacramento Kings as the playoff race heats up

James tallied a double-double with 18 points and 13 rebounds in 40 minutes of play. Despite being an assist away from a triple-double, he was uncharacteristically the fourth-highest scorer for the Lakers in their losing effort.

Austin Reaves led purple and gold with 28 points, while Anthony Davis and Rui Hachimura had 22 and 20, respectively.

On the other hand, all of Sacramento’s starters reached double digits, with Barnes scoring 23 to lead the charge. De’Aaron Fox contributed 21 as Sabonis did what James couldn’t and secured a triple-double in a win. The center clocked in 17 points, 19 rebounds, and 10 assists as the Kings have won four of their last five games.

Sacramento sits sixth in the Western Conference with a 38-27 record. Meanwhile, the Lakers hold the 9th seed at 36-31.
