LeBron James arrived for his 21st NBA season in style. 

Ahead of the Lakers’ season-opening clash against the Nuggets on Tuesday night, James rolled up to Ball Arena clad in a full Louis Vuitton outfit, which was worth a fortune.

According to Front Office Sports, LeBron’s pre-game outfit cost more than $28,000. 

James posted his outfit to Instagram on Tuesday. In his post’s caption, he said the clothes were from Louis Vuitton creative designer Pharrell’s Men’s Spring-Summer 2024 catalog, a campaign he was announced as the face of earlier on Tuesday. 

The 38-year-old wasted no time flaunting some of the collection’s more pricey offerings ahead of his season debut. 

According to TMZ, James’s collarless jacket is worth more than $5,000, while the teal “Speedy Bandouliere 40” he’s rocking fetches a price tag north of $11,000, though they’re not available for sale until December.

LeBron’s walk down the tunnel ahead of the 2023-24 campaign certainly didn’t disappoint, as he pulled out an extremely expensive outfit to display for his fans at the dawn of his 21st season in the league.

James wasn’t the only one enjoying a flashy start to the season at Ball Arena, as the Nuggets were presented with their stunning championship rings ahead of Tuesday’s tip-off.
