LeBron eating Red Vines on the bench after scoring 40 is a GOAT move

Mr. James plus Red Vines equals crazy delicious.

That is, it was the best for fans who watched LeBron downing the candy on the bench after dropping 40 points in a win over the New Orleans Pelicans.

And why not eat something sweet after a performance like that? It’s certainly not every day James goes off like that in the scoring column, especially in the regular season — as far as I can tell, that’s what the TNT broadcast was talking about as they watched the courtside scene.

So that’s the right move. Go on and celebrate with some candy in front of everyone, and while you’re at it, get fans into arguing if Red Vines or Twizzlers were the preferred straw-shaped candy:

Not sure how to feel about @KingJames being a Red Vines person. Everyone knows that @TWIZZLERS are better pic.twitter.com/u4FAQonmzx

This is the best piece of LeBron and candy content since he asked someone to find candy for his daughter in 2017.
