LeBron James had a very entertaining Saturday as he attended one of the most iconic events in the world of sports. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar traveled all the way to Le Mans, France, to be the honorary starter of the legendary race.
The 100th edition of this event needed an incredible starter and LeBron was given the honor. He didn’t disappoint and did a solid job to start the race. After a couple of hours, he took to social media to thank the fans and the organizers.
“Merci Le Mans ,” the King tweeted.

This has to be a huge honor for LeBron, who is already one of the best athletes in the world. His legend has transcended so much that he’s now a key figure in important events around the world.
While he’s taking some time to think about his future in the NBA, James is traveling and enjoying time with his family.
The King once again was mentioned in rumors after Kyrie Irving reportedly reached out to him to lure him away from Los Angeles. This was one of the biggest stories of the week but now appears to be in the past.

This was surely a big honor for James, who shared his excitement about it days prior to the race. He enjoys competition, and this is one of the biggest examples of competitiveness in the world of sports.
“There’s nothing like seeing and experiencing sports at their highest level,” James said in a statement, via AP. “It’s an honor for me to be part of this historic moment in motorsport and help celebrate the centenary of one of the biggest sporting events in the world.
“I look forward to kicking off this iconic race and watching its world-class drivers compete on Le Mans’ global stage.”
James is always a big topic around the NBA and after a disappointing ending to the 2022-23 season, he’s made a lot of headlines. There’s still a chance he doesn’t play for the Lakers next season and fans will be patiently waiting to see what’s next for the King.
