LeBron James decided to show off his fashion sense ahead of the LA Lakers' season opener at the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night as he begins his 21st season. James even posted it on his Instagram account, drawing a decent reception from his fans and followers.
James isn't a fashion icon, but he tries his best to make sure he looks good in public. Oftentimes, he puts on an outfit that suits him, which is also comfortable to look at. This time, he decided to display a designer bag as he made his way to his first game this season.
LeBron had a greenish-Louis Vitton bag to match his brown patterned sweater that seemed like it was quilted.
"LOUIS VUITTON MEN-Spring-Summer 2024 👑 HERE!! Hello World" James captioned on Instagram.

Based on the photos, it appears as though the Lakers star is in a good mood for their first game of the season. This is a great sign as the Nuggets taunted Los Angeles during their championship parade in June. This birthed a new rivalry, making it a must-watch game.
Last season, the Lakers finished 43-39, seventh in the Western Conference. The team had a great offseason, signing valuable role players to help the Lakers get back to the conference finals and possibly the NBA Finals.

Analyst predicts that LeBron James might push Rob Pelinka to make trades this season
Over the summer, the Lakers made significant changes to their lineup. Although the moves weren't major, they could still impact their 2023-24 season. However, there's still a chance that the team will hit some roadblocks and struggle throughout the 82-game season.
Greg Swartz of Bleacher Report wrote that Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka might get pressured by LeBron James if that happens. It won't be the first time that Pelinka received pressure from the superstar.
"It's not unusual for James to voice his opinion at the trade deadline, a now time-honored tradition that's happened over and over again," Swartz wrote. "Don't expect this season to be any different.
"James is fully aware of the Lakers' trade assets, a collection that includes either using the 2029 or 2030 first-round pick along with young guards like Max Christie and rookie Jalen Hood-Schifino. New contracts for players like D'Angelo Russell, Rui Hachimura and Jarred Vanderbilt could be used to help piece together a trade package as well.
"If the Lakers aren't playing up to expectations come February, expect there to be some healthy pressure applied to the front office by James as he chases a fifth championship."
Health and consistency are the main concerns for the Lakers. Once they get those two figured out, they have a real shot at contending for the title.
