LeBron James, Lakers Players Exchange Words With Fans During Blowout Loss to Pelicans


L.A. has lost nine of its last 13 games.

LeBron James and other Lakers players can be seen getting into a verbal altercation with fans during their latest loss Sunday night. Several instances of profanity can be heard in a video here

In the first part of the video recorded by a separate fan, it appears that James is exchanging words with a fan behind the Pelicans’ bench.

Russell Westbrook made an appearance at the end of the video, in which he appears to yell, “Go home.”
