LeBron James shot an air ball on a free throw and got roasted by Twitter

It’s been an ugly first season with the Los Angeles Lakers for LeBron James.

The team is currently just playing out the string as they’ve been eliminated from the playoffs, meaning LeBron won’t play in the postseason since 2005.

Injuries have played part of the problem this year but it’s still been a very disappointing for the Lakers as they’ve suffered some ugly losses.

Head coach Luke Walton will most likely be out of a job soon.

And it’s just going to be weird to not see LeBron in the NBA finals.

But things might have taken the most embarrassing turn Tuesday night when LeBron stepped up to the free throw line and shot an airball.

Yup, that really happened.
