A unearthed photo of NBA player LeBron James with rapper Bow Wow has astonished fans owing to the apparent height difference between the two, despite the fact that Bow Wow is only three years LeBron’s junior. The photo was shot in 2003, just days before the Cleveland Cavaliers selected LeBron out of high school with the first overall choice. At the time, LeBron stood at a similar height to NBA star Magic Johnson, who is ranked at 6-foot-9, while towering above the 5-foot-7 Bow Wow.
LeBron and Bow Wow posed with basketballs in their hands in the photo, but the ball in LeBron’s grasp appeared smaller and hilariously little compared to the one in Bow Wow’s. The photograph has received millions of views on Twitter, with NBA fans joking about how much older LeBron looked at the time, even comparing him to Bow Wow’s stepfather.
Another recently unearthed photo shows LeBron sitting next to Dwyane Wade and Derrick Rose during his second tenure with the Cavaliers in the 2017-18 season, demonstrating the Cavaliers’ star power at the time, despite the fact that the trio only played together for a limited time due to injuries. Despite the difficulties, the Cavaliers advanced to the NBA Finals before being swept by the Golden State Warriors.
