As you’d expect, LeBron James’ decision to join the Los Angeles Lakers triggered quite the response on social media.
That was particularly the case among the members of the new team he’ll be joining, including legends past and semi-present whose mantle James will be picking up as the Lakers attempt to return to their championship glory.
Welcome to the family @KingJames #lakers4life #striveforgreatness @JeanieBuss @MagicJohnson and RP well done!!! 🙌🏾

I am sure the Lakernation is rejoicing The acquisition of LeBron James means that the Lakers are just a smidgen away from being real contenders. Congrats to @MagicJohnson & @LALakersLive et al. Cross your fingers for news from San Antonio.
