Clippers fan's LeBron James trash talk backfires in brutal fashion

A Clippers fan’s taunt about LeBron James backfired during a shooting contest at Intuit Dome on Friday night. After calling out James’ age, the fan said he would “show LeBron how a 40-year-old is supposed to do it.” He began the contest but looked off-balance immediately, needing four attempts for his first make. He then missed three straight shots from the front-left area, and the clip ended before the challenge finished. The video resurfaced on X after @Shane00 posted it, drawing heavy trolling and hundreds of thousands of views. The Clippers then lost to the Lakers 125-117 as Austin Reaves sparked a 16-4 run in the third. James, now in his 24th NBA season with the Philadelphia 76ers, averaged 16.3 points, 7 rebounds and 5.7 assists through three games.
