LeBron James will surely be the star if the Los Angeles Lakers manage to get into the playoffs. After starting off the season on a high, the Lakers suddenly slumped to a series of defeats. Having lost back-to-back games against the Suns and the Cavaliers, the game against the Toronto Raptors came as a welcome victory. Unfortunately, the Lakers’ rough patch did not seem to be over just yet.

Squaring off against the Pistons and the Grizzlies, the Lakers were once more humbled twice. Just when their fans started to doubt their team’s prospects this season, the Los Angeles Lakers delivered. Putting on a scintillating performance, the Lakers registered back-to-back wins against the Raptors and the 76ers. And right at the helm of such a thumping comeback is none other than King James.

Together with Anthony Davis, James has averaged 23.2 points with 7.7 rebounds per match. The 39-year-old legend also has 8.9 assists to his name, which will surely put the smiles back on their fans’ faces. However, despite things seemingly going right for the Lakers, a recent video has been doing the rounds on the internet. After his recent win, James was seen getting interviewed in his locker room.

But lying on his table next to him was an Afro pick. This is usually used for styling and maintaining hair. Now, LeBron James does not have a lot of hair to style with the pick. Hence, eagle-eyed fans were quick to point it out, making ripples on the internet.

Fans Investigate LeBron James’ African Pick

Taking to the comment section, fans quickly started to dissect what exactly was the purpose that the pick was serving. Thus, they immediately jumped onto the speculation ship and gave their two cents on the matter.

One fan opined, “Its for the beard dumba**.”

Another fan too, agreed and said, “For his beard stupid f**k.”

A third fan too, thought the pick was there to style LeBron James’ beard. The comment read, “I’m sure it’s for his beard.”

This fan ignored the Afro pick but found out yet another interesting item. The comment read, “Fo his beard… Real question is… Tf he need all that lotion for in a locker room full of ni***s.”

Another fan took a shot at the page for posting such content by saying, “So you’re a white person talking about why does LeBron have an Afro pick? You def exposed yourself buddy, even if you were “just joking”.”

Another fan found the post outrageous. It said, “This is outrageous.”

This fan thought that the Afro pick belonged to Bronny James. The comment read, “Father son locker.”

A fan said, “Beard.”

Now, while it is not clear what exactly the pick was used for, it is very much evident that James is getting back to his elements. With the Lakers back to winning ways, the road ahead will surely be an intriguing one to watch.
