LeBron James fan gets humbling response from rapper Ice Cube’s son over Lakers legacy debate

LeBron James not rated highly among other Lakers legends by Ice Cube’s son, O’Shea Jackson Jr.

Despite his contributions to the beautiful game, LeBron James, who is also the NBA’s all-time leading scorer has faced intense criticism throughout his career, despite the fact that he has consistently been proving his doubters wrong. His 2019-20 championship victory with the Los Angeles Lakers may have silenced many critics, not O’Shea Jackson Jr., son of Ice Cube.

O’Shea Jackson Jr. who is a Lakers superfan, recently on X expressed his doubts about LeBron James and his status among Lakers legends. His doubts came in response to a social media post, where he suggested that the four-time NBA champion isn’t on the same level as other Lakers icons like the late Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, or Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Lmao he was never gonna be the first I thought of.

O’Shea Jackson Jr. wrote on X

This argument has been backed by the fact that despite King James racking up individual accolades, the holy grail of an NBA title has eluded the team. It became more painful last season when the Boston Celtics won the title and leapfrogged them into first place for most titles won.

However, despite Jackson’s reservations, James’ impressive statistics with the Lakers of 26.9 points, 8.1 assists, and 7.9 rebounds per game over seven seasons have solidified his place in the franchise’s history. This season may be the season that fans of the purple and gold may demand one more major shot at another title.
