Clutch Points reports that Los Angeles Lakers player LeBron James was noticeably unhappy after a fan wrapped his arms around him on the sidelines during the team’s Monday night victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder at Crypto Arena.
James, 39, can be seen appearing agitated in the X (Twitter) video provided by the sports news website, although the actual incident in question was not recorded. Clutch Points reports the supporter was booted out of the arena.
Regarding the sideline altercation, neither James nor the Lakers have released a statement. However, the more pressing question is why the fan was permitted to approach the bench by security.
