Not long after winning gold with Team USA in the 2024 Paris Olympics, basketball legend Lebron James is under fire for his disgusting attitude with a young fan.

Lebron James is undoubtedly one of the biggest NBA legends still in the game. Now, he along with Steph Curry has done well in the league and brought in another Team USA victory. After the conclusion of the Paris Olympics, Lebron James has three golds, one bronze, several top or runner-up all-time records, and the 2024 Olympics MVP award.

However, Lebron James is now under fire for his actions just after adding to his Olympic basketball legacy. While donning his newest gold medal, a young fan approached and asked him for a picture. Lebron James gave the fan quick, aggressive pushback, before continuing forward to celebrate his victory in a local club.

Fans of the basketball star had mixed reactions to the way Lebron James handled the interaction. Most found that this is too harsh a reaction to a simple fan interaction while others found that his strictness was warranted due to the fan blocking his pathway. Some, however, just thought this should be a learning lesson for the kid to never meet your heroes.

Though it is understandable to want some time to yourself to celebrate a massive victory, there are better ways to handle fans, particularly younger ones who idolize you. Hopefully, Lebron James will issue an apology for the harshness of this interaction. He is entitled to his own time, but everyone is entitled to kindness.
