Words/phrases that possibly come to your head when you hear the name LeBron James: champion, MVP, All-Star, and possibly even GOAT. What do you not think? The word house cleaner.
After Saturday’s preseason game for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Kyrie Irving and LeBron were the last two in the locker room. They were arguing about which star should be the one to address the media first. Eventually, Kyrie came out first. Where was LeBron at this time? Cleaning up the Cavs locker room.
From Joe Vardon of Cleveland.com:
The three-time champion, four-time MVP took not just his own laundry bag to the locker room attendants, but picked up off the floor an additional five or six laundry sacks that were strewn about The Q locker room by teammates who had left.
“Hopefully I only have to say something once,” James said, promising to address the laundry littering with the Cavs. “Can’t leave the locker room like that.”
Who would have ever thought that LeBron would be the one to clean up the Cavs locker room? Not me, that’s for sure. Obviously, James is a veteran, and he was probably making a point to his new teammates that it is unacceptable to leave the locker room a mess. Hopefully, his teammates won’t make a mess like this again in the future.
