LeBron James faces fans’ backlash after a video from P. Diddy’s Instagram Live surfaces, featuring the Lakers star praising the renowned rapper.

LeBron James has been in the eye of the storm following the resurfacing of an old video of him featuring in a live video with Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. Diddy at the moment is facing serious allegations of s*xual assault and s*x trafficking.

The severity of the allegations has resulted in bad PR for the rap mogul which has seen athletes like Super Bowl winner, Patrick Mahomes distance himself from him by scrubbing off old tweets. Now, LeBron James finds himself under the microscope for his past connections with Diddy.

The old video that resurfaced on social media is the kind of attention James has avoided all throughout his career that had tainted the legacies of Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan. That’s why when it was dug out, it caused a storm all over the basketball community.

James has always had friends in the music industry like Drake, 2Chainz, Travis Scott and Jay Z. However, despite Diddy and his legal team’s attempt to debunk all the alleged crimes, his association with James have come under intense scrutiny in light of the ongoing legal battle.

As fans await eagerly for LeBron James or his team’s response to the controversy, the rumours won’t end. Elsewhere, James would have his task cut out in helping the Lakers continue their impressive run as they fight to make it to the postseason.
