Lakers News: Writer Breaks Down Top LeBron James Commercials, Somehow Skips Best Ones
If you've been around for some of the most watched television events on the year, you've. probably seen LeBron James' face on your TV a couple of times.
The NBA superstar also has massive brand endorsement deals with Nike, Sprite, Kia, and a lot of other big name brands, so he's appeared in quite a few commercials.
Well, Bre'ana Singleton from The Athletic decided to revisit some of LeBron's old commercials, and some of the snubs are outrageous.
Of course some of the classics like "Can I get a layup?" and all of the "Puppet Chalk" series were on there, but there's two that were left off that have just left me scratching my head.
Snub #1 - What Should I Do?
In this outlandish commercial, LeBron ponders what his legacy will be, whether he should just start fresh with a new life of a poet or get his tattoo removed. He shows us what his Hall of Fame speech might look like, and even dresses up as a Wild West villain! But still, this commercial was left off the list
Snub #2 - Want a Sprite Cranberry?
I mean come on! This commercial was EVERYWHERE during the holidays. I couldn't go three hours without seeing it on TV, and even after it stopped running, my brain would just randomly go "You want a Sprite cranberry?" Every waking hour of the day. Still, left off the list.
Snub #3 - I Won't Tell You to Drink Sprite
A surprising amount of Lebron James Sprite commercials were left off the list. Even this one, with its fourth wall breaks, celebrity cameos and funny autotune ending didn't crack the "Best LeBron James Commercials" List.
Is there another one that wasn't included that you think should be on LeBron's list of best commercials?
