Despite missing the NBA Playoffs for the first time since 2005, LeBron James seems to be enjoying his time in the sultry springtime air of Los Angeles. Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul and Tristan Thompson joined the fun.

According to a recent post by Bron on his Snapchat feed, the Los Angeles Lakers’ legendary forward is having a grand old time alongside some of his good friends:

As you can see, many players are in James’s entourage at this cigar smoke-filled outdoor table including Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul and Tristan Thompson. Also present are Bron’s agent, Rich Paul, and various other inner-circle members for the one of the greatest NBA players of all time.

VinoUncorked, the Twitter user who posted this, surmises that because of how jovial the proceedings are that Bron will never leave L.A. due to the ritzy lifestyle that he can live in California.

However, perhaps the cigars being smoked represent a peace offering in a meeting of players that James wants to get included in his upcoming Space Jam 2 film. As the sequel to one of the most memorable basketball/fantasy films of all time, James wants to make sure it lives up to the original on all fronts.

Of course, if it does not, it will feed into the narrative than James is somehow “lesser” than Michael Jordan – though in a slightly different, film-related fashion.
