LeBron James has spoken out on sleeved jerseys before, and he clearly does not like them. During the Cleveland Cavaliers game at home against the New York Knicks, LeBron missed a three point attempt and, out of frustration, ripped the sleeves on his jersey. As we can see, LeBron clearly has an issue with these sleeves on his jersey.
If he wants the NBA to get rid of them, he should try starting a petition or something among players. Personally, I don’t like the sleeves either. Basketball is played without sleeves, and when you get in a routine of playing without them night after night, it can mess with the players shot when they have them on their jersey. Maybe this is a popular opinion around the NBA, but players haven’t said anything. Maybe LeBron should try to see what happens.
