Theo Wargo/NBC/Getty Images for 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy FallonThis past weekend, LeBron James agreed to a four-year $154 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers once again.
The three-time NBA champion was originally signed by the latter team in 2003 and left Ohio, his home state, in 2010 to join the Miami Heat. He returned to Cleveland after helping the Heat win two NBA Finals, in 2012 and 2013.
Naturally, LeBron received a warm welcome to L.A. on social media from fans, including celebs.
