LeBron James got into it with fans courtside in Atlanta, and it turned into one of the NBA’s more bizarre sideline moments. The drama started when a man named “Daddy Carlos” started heckling LeBron. LeBron responded, which led Carlos’s wife, Juliana Carlos, to jump in and defend her husband. She exchanged words with LeBron, stood up, and even flipped her hair before being escorted out by security. She left with a loud message, cursing out LeBron and calling him out as she walked off.
LeBron later said the couple was going back and forth with him and called it a joke that they were blaming him. During the exchange, LeBron even mocked the man by calling him an “old steroid ass” and said guys like that never stop talking. The whole thing was caught on camera, and Juliana’s aggressive exit quickly made the rounds online. The incident didn’t stop the game, but it definitely stole attention from it. No punches or physical altercations, just loud words, ego, and a courtside ejection.
