During his career in the NBA, LeBron James has struggled season after season. Not so much on the court as with his receding hairline.

After years of trying to hide his inconsistent hair with snapback after headband, putting up with endless ridicule from fans and haters, the arguably greatest basketball player of all time finally listened to the critiques.

Following his NBA finals loss against the Golden State Warriors this week, James revealed his new ’do Thursday in an Instagram photo and video posted from the gym.

James’s haircut timing, perhaps not coincidentally, coincides with the Warriors parading their win across the web.

Twitter’s reaction? LeBron just levelled up into legendary mode.
