LeBron James spotted playing pickup game at UCLA
You never know who might show up to get some run on the basketball courts at UCLA. Even LeBron James rolls through Westwood from time to time.
Former UCLA basketball player and creator of Comedy Central TV show “Legends of Chamberlain Heights”, Josiah Johnson, was on campus in Westwood Wednesday. He shared video on Twitter of James playing in a pickup basketball game.

LeBron has a home in Los Angeles, so it’s not too surprising to see him playing at UCLA. Pros often get together at the men’s gym on the UCLA campus to play and keep their games sharp. Even James will make appearances there sometimes.
