James is the biggest basketball player in the world and a celebrity outside of hoops as well, given his philanthropic and business endeavors. At 36 years old, the self-titled \u201cWashed King\u201d is still in firm contention to win another NBA championship as possibly the league\u2019s best player. Every fan of basketball who recognizes the aging process knows how committed LeBron is to taking care of his body and perfecting his craft. Apparently, that also extends to gaming \u2014 as the King has asked for gaming chair recommendations. With teammates like Dennis Schroder and Anthony Davis already avid gamers, and son Bronny James already inducted into FaZe Clan, LeBron\u2019s ties to gaming are self-evident. Now that he\u2019s trying to up the ante and get more involved, the gaming world seems very ready to guide him. Bron\u2019s initial question was a simple one: \u201cWho makes the best, most comfortable gaming chair?\u201d And then the four-time NBA MVP, 17-time All-Star specified that the chair would indeed be for him (all 6\u20199\u201d, 250 pounds of him). TimTheTatMan, Warzone and variety Twitch streamer extraordinaire, immediately repped his Herman Miller sponsorship and recommended the \u201cEmbody\u201d chair. Based on the \u201cAeron\u201d chair, which holds a place in the Museum of Modern Art\u2019s permanent collection, this is likely a quality suggestion with good ergonomics. But Minecraft YouTuber Dream took things in a different direction. Like hundreds of users replying in amazement that the NBA\u2019s biggest star is an avid gamer, Dream simply took this as his chance to talk shop with the king of hops. Similarly, Twitch streamer and Dream SMP Minecraft creator Tommyinnit figured this was as good a time as any to tell Bron about his favorite game. Hi lebron. creator of basketball. ever heard of the hit game Minecraft. I know the guy that made it. DM me \u2014 TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) May 2, 2021 While it remains unknown if the \u201ccreator of basketball\u201d will capitalize on Dream and Tommy\u2019s requests to get involved in the world of Minecraft, it\u2019s clear that the gaming world is welcoming the Los Angeles Lakers superstar. When LeBron does settle on his new gaming chair, we\u2019ll update this piece. And who knows, maybe he\u2019ll have joined his son on FaZe Clan by then and started streaming on Twitch. He has said he wants to play on the same team as Bronny, after all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gaming Twitter explodes after LeBron James asks for gaming chair recommendations Disney \/ Herman MillerLeBron James, NBA superstar and international celebrity, has asked Twitter for gaming chair recommendations \u2014 and the community, including streamers like TimTheTatMan, Dream, and Tommyinnit, has come to help.
