Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James was on hand for Sunday’s game between the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles at SoFi Stadium. However, his fun was spoiled a bit when someone yelled at him and accused him of being present at the infamous parties that were once held by disgraced rapper Sean Combs, also known as Diddy.

“We know you was at them Diddy parties, We know you was there”
Thank God security made the fan stop 👏

For a couple of decades, Combs was a major player in the hip hop genre. But numerous sexual misconduct allegations he was engaged in have recently come to light, resulting in numerous lawsuits and multiple criminal charges. He’s reportedly facing anywhere from 15 years in prison to a life sentence.
Lurid details have come out about a number of lavish parties he held at which misdeeds allegedly took place. It is believed that James was in attendance for at least one of them, although there is no hard evidence that he actually went to any of them.
James has become a polarizing figure in recent years, and he has been a target for some fans who love to hate him. But it hasn’t prevented him from continuing to play at a high level in his 22nd NBA season.
After Tuesday’s NBA Cup group play game against the Phoenix Suns, he is averaging 23.3 points, 8.1 rebounds and 9.2 assists a game, and he’s shooting 50.7 percent from the field. One of the big keys to his longevity has been the improvement in his 3-point shooting — he had long been a mediocre 3-point shooter, but he made 41.0 percent of his 3-point attempts last season and is at 41.2 percent from that distance so far this season.
The Lakers currently sport a 10-7 record, which is somewhat impressive considering that many people predicted they would be rather mediocre this season.
James is arguably the most famous and recognizable active athlete on the planet, which has allowed him to establish friendships with some of the world’s richest and most powerful people. But of course, people like him need to be careful when it comes to who they decide to associate themselves with.
