AceShowbiz - During last night's Lakers-Nets game in Brooklyn, LeBron James caused a stir by rapping along to Kendrick Lamar's Drake diss track, "Like That," during warmups. The moment was captured on video and shared widely on social media.
Despite his friendship with Drake, James' apparent enjoyment of Lamar's verse raised eyebrows among some fans. Hip-hop producer Metro Boomin, who's also featured on the track, playfully attributed James' subsequent 40-point performance to the song's inspiration.
"Bro was warming up to Like That then went 9/10 from 3 and 13/17 for 40 points," Boomin wrote on X.
James' rap-along has also drawn attention to the ongoing beef between Drake and Lamar. The verse in question is widely interpreted as a diss towards Drake, and James' public display of support for Lamar suggests he may be siding with the Compton rapper.
However, some analysts believe James is simply enjoying the music and not necessarily taking a stance in the rivalry. Others point to James' previous praise for both Drake and Lamar as evidence that he remains neutral.
Regardless of his intentions, James' rap-along has sparked a lively debate on social media and in hip-hop circles. It remains to be seen whether his actions will escalate the ongoing beef between Drake and Lamar.
