In the latest hours, LeBron James has been yet again linked to a transfer to the New York Knicks – and it’s down to his “two-emoji” reply to a tweet that has had fans go berzerk. Replying to a post on X, James replied with a Statue of Liberty alongside a Crown emoji. While the actual tweet follows no other context, fans believe it is a sign of a potential next move. However, the emoji was seemingly tweeted because their next game is against the New York Knicks.
