LeBron SS blue jackets jersey

LeBron James made a loud entrance with his outfit choice on Wednesday.

The four-time NBA MVP sported a custom Columbus Blue Jackets Stadium Series jersey while sitting on the sidelines during the Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets game at Crypto.com Arena.

James, who is out with a groin injury, was shown on the ESPN broadcast wearing a custom No. 23 Blue Jackets sweater.

Columbus sported the jerseys on March 1 during the 2025 Stadium Series against the Detroit Red Wings at Ohio Stadium.

The Blue Jackets commented, “No debate: LeBron is the [goat emoji],” on the video posted by ESPN on social media.

The Los Angeles Lakers star grew up in Akron, Ohio, about two hours north of Columbus.

Just a day later, the Blue Jackets returned the favor when forward Adam Fantilliwalked into Nationwide Arena before a game against the Florida Panthers wearing James' Lakers jersey.

Just like when James is on the court, it's a crossover no one saw coming.
