LeBron James celebrated Usher like a “single man,” first on the golf course and then at his New York party
LeBron spent much of the day with Usher as the singer celebrated his birthday
U sher’s birthday celebration offered a glimpse of the close friendship between the singer and LeBron James. The Sixers star first joined him on a golf course, where he lit the candles on the cake so his friend, who was turning 48, could blow them out.
Later, LeBron also showed up in New York for Usher’s private party. When he arrived, he seemed to be surrounded by real friends the kind he cares about and even shares a signature greeting with. That was the case when the NBA star ran into Jay-Z : the two exchanged a familiar greeting that seemed to be their own.
LeBron spent the whole day with Usher celebrating his birthday
In the clips circulating online, LeBron appears without Savannah. Still, the videos don’t confirm whether she joined him for the rest of the celebration
Among the guests at the celebration were J.R. Smith, Kevin Hart, Mary J. Blige, Fabolous and Bun B. The party featured a magic show, and Kevin Hart was among those surprised by the tricks.
LeBron’s new chapter helps explain why New York has become part of his travel routine . After leaving the Lakers, he signed with the Philadelphia 76ers for his 24th NBA season. Recent reports have placed him traveling by helicopter between New York and the Philadelphia area, where the team’s practice facility is located; the flight takes about 40 minutes. When asked where he would live, LeBron said he would have “both” options and “multiple residences.”
LeBron James’ night in New York seems to have been a chance to show up for his friend Usher on an important day, amid preparations for a new season and travel between two cities. Perhaps the most personal image wasn’t his arrival in front of the cameras, but the moment on the golf course: LeBron lighting the candles as his friend celebrated another year.
