NBA Fan Recorded LeBron James Who Didn't Want To Drink Any Sports Beverages: "Not Healthy Enough"

LeBron James was spotted turning away from sports drinks that also included root beer.

LeBron James may have perhaps revealed the secret to his longevity: No sports beverages.

The Los Angeles Lakers superstar was recorded poking his head into a barrel of sports drinks and turning away without picking any of the beverages that were in it.

James was seen laughing his way to the sidelines and then turned away in disgust when he saw the barrel filled with sports drinks.

The 38-year-old has been known to keep himself in amazing shape throughout the year, and his refusal to put in drinks filled with sugar is an example of his ability to maintain his athleticism and peak performance.

The ongoing season saw the four-time NBA champion record 28.9 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 6.8 assists in the regular stretch. The postseason so far has him an average 24.7 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 4.3 assists. These numbers are ample proof that James is still in peak physical condition that matches his experience and game awareness.

NBA Fans Reacting To LeBron James Snubbing Sports Drinks

Not all fans were surprised when they saw James turn away at the sight of sports drinks. Some couldn't stop talking about his expression.

"I think not. It’s that man's preference to drink what he wants," another fan commented.

"If I open up a cooler and see that much coconut water-based garbage, I’m walking out too. Lebron is very real for this," another fan opined.

A fan took a shot at the sports beverage in the canister.

On the season front, James and the Lakers have managed to carve out a 2-1 lead against the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs. They lost the second game, only to bounce back in Game 3 with a resounding 111-101 win.

And it's understandable that James was watchful of what he would put in his system. He's an integral component of the LA unit, and wouldn't risk his game time for anything that would put his health in jeopardy.
