“You Think The Ocean Needs Your Plastic Golf Balls?”: NBA Fans Call Out LeBron James Playing Golf On A Yacht In Italian Coast
NBA fans are condemning LeBron James after the legend shared a clip of himself playing some golf on his yacht off the coast of Italy. King James has always been an avid golfer, even remarking at one point that he would definitely like to have a career in the game once his basketball career has come to an end.
Many fans of James obviously find this recent post quite delightful, but others are calling him out for choosing to play golf in the middle of the ocean, the height of luxury. James is currently without a team, with various bidders still putting up impressive offers to tempt the hooper.
“LeBron casually golfing off the coast of Italy while Kendrick Lamar plays in the background,” NBARetweet tweeted, sharing a clip of LeBron James golfing.

“You think the ocean needs your plastic golf balls?” one fan mockingly asked.
“Nothing quite says ‘I’m an a**hole’ like being somewhere beautiful and shooting golf balls into the water.” another fan trolled.
“Does he have a marine biologist in the event they choke a whale?” another fan joked, calling reference to the Seinfeld episode ‘The Marine Biologist.’

There are many fans who are obviously irritated with LeBron James hitting golf balls into the ocean from his yacht. Some are worried that these balls might be plastic and that the ocean might get even more polluted, but others quickly pointed out that they are most likely dissolvable.
NBA Fans Continue To Troll LeBron James For Golfing Off Yacht
NBA fans are continuing to heavily troll LeBron James after his latest golfing video went viral. Some feel that the guy is desperately starved for attention, which is why he’s sharing such content, while others are mocking his very golf swing in itself.

“Can’t golf on a real course because he’s an Attention Wh**e. Hope he stays there.” One fan said.
“Brutal looking swing. He’s not a finesse basketball player…now he’s trying the ultimate finesse sport (laughing with tears emoji)” another fan said.
“He takes a long time for a bad swing. On the bright side golf balls are great for maritime ecology,” one more fan pointed out.
LeBron James has been taking up golf for quite some time now, but clearly, there’s plenty of room for improvement. Many fans are pointing this out in the mentions, and that James should think about his future career in golf a number of times, especially since he does not seem to be pro material yet.

Still NBA fans are speculating on the reasons why LeBron James would end up sharing such a post in the first place. The legend has been known to share plenty of content from his luxurious life in the past, and this is just another example.
