LeBron James is currently playing in his 15th NBA season and he’s accomplished a lot since his debut back in 2003.
The Akron, Ohio native has won three NBA championships, has been named the NBA Finals MVP three times, has been named the NBA MVP four times and he’s been selected to 13 NBA All-Star teams, to name a few of his accomplishments.
Although he’s played 1,081 career regular season games and 217 playoff games, James has never been ejected from a game. However, that all changed on Tuesday night when his former team came to town.
The Cavaliers were up by 23 at the time of the call, but James was not happy about getting a no-call on the play and lost his temper on the referee. Not having any of it, referee Kane Fitzgerald was quick to give James a technical foul and then ejected the superstar seconds later.
Considering fans either love or hate LeBron James, you can bet there were a lot of mixed reactions online following James’ ejection, including a tweet from New York Knicks centre Enes Kanter.
Here’s how the rest of the NBA fans reacted to the ejection.
James still finished the night with an impressive stat line as he dropped 21 points to go along with 12 rebounds and six assists in 28 minutes of play in the Cavaliers’ 108-97 victory over the Miami Heat.
