LeBron James ‘addicted’ to new hobby amid rocky Lakers offseason
NY Post
He’s not the first all-time great to hit the greens.
Lakers superstar LeBron James posted on social media that he has a new addiction that has claimed many before him: golf.
“Addicted. I’m sorry. I know, yep, that’s it. Yep. Rain and everything,” James said on his Instagram Story as the weather conditions worsened.
James, who was recently seen in St. Tropez with his wife, Savannah, wasn’t getting excellent sunlight as rain poured down, but he continued to fight through and prepped to tee off.
There has been some apparent tension between the Lakers and the 40-year-old James this offseason, as the franchise has gone all-in on new star Luka Doncic, whom they recently signed to a three-year, $165 million contract extension.
When James exercised his player option for the 2025-26 season, his agent, Rich Paul, alluded to a potential trade request by reinforcing James’ desire to compete for a championship next season.

The Knicks won’t be raising a banner to the rafters at Madison Square Garden to commemorate their victory in the 2025 NBA Cup, and you can count your humble narrator among the faction that wishes they’d chosen differently. I’m not quite sure when it became mandatory to rinse as much fun out of sports as possible, but we’re sure trying.
