It's pod time with Bron and JJ

The Los Angeles Lakers’ LeBron James is known for his incredible skills on the court. After playing in the NBA for over 20 years, many of his exciting moments on the court have been captured.

Recently, on his Mind The Game Podcast, where he sits with his co-host JJ Redick, James admitted that he sometimes watches his own highlights, even though he didn't want to say it at first. 

Redick, a former NBA player, helped James open up about this. It turns out that even the best NBA players, like LeBron James, enjoy looking back at their incredible plays, not just those of other players.

The funny moment started when Bron was making it look casual explaining how he occasionally watches his own clips on his social media. He said, “There's like, sometimes there's old clips of me that I watch, or come across my timeline on social”

Seeing The King feeling shy of accepting this, Redick jokingly asked him to hold on and admit that watching yourself is okay. Catching a laugh, LeBron added, “I see the clips! I don't just go online and look up 'LeBron James highlights.’”

LeBron entered the NBA straight from high school at 18, which meant he didn't experience college life or March Madness. Even though he missed out on these experiences, LeBron has achieved remarkable feats in the NBA such as breaking scoring records and making numerous All-Star appearances.
