LA mural showing LeBron James in Lakers uniform vandalized

LeBron James

Most Lakers fans are hoping LeBron James can help snap a streak of disappointing seasons and bring the franchise another Larry O’Brien Trophy, but there are apparently some folks in Los Angeles who want nothing to do with the four-time NBA MVP.

The graffiti didn’t last long, however. Never shared an update on Sunday showing that he had touched up his work and it looks as good as new:
