LeBron James is an interesting guy. He’s also the best basketball player on the planet.
He unfollowed his Cleveland Cavaliers on social media earlier this season and then subtweeted his frustrations with teammates. The Cavs even had to talk to James about his actions because it was drawing negative attention to the team.
That stuff tends to happen when you have more followers (30.1 million) than your team (1.1 million), league (21.1 million) and biggest sponsor (5.95 million) combined, as James does.
Don’t expect any more social media headlines from Kings James during Cleveland’s playoff run, which begins Sunday. He tweeted a message to let us know he won’t be tweeting during the playoffs — something he started several years ago.
