Published 1 week ago
Description
Madeline and Charlotte are back with another deep dive into a very famous athlete’s Instagram — this time, it’s LeBron James. LeBron is about to kick off his 24th season in the NBA, when the Sixers face the Knicks, and the gals have a feeling that he may be subtly crashing out on the internet.
Madeline has been taking screenshots of LeBron’s Instagram Story posts since he announced he was joining the Sixers in July. He’s been posting up to 16 quote cards a day, seemingly of AI text. After an overview of LeBron’s career and history on social media, the gals get into their theories about how he’s facing his own mortality, his family, what happens when athletes retire, and why they think LeBron is really going through it.
