LeBron James couldn’t help but react after Damon Wayans Jr. dropped a wild story involving Eddie Murphy’s yacht parties and Sean “Diddy” Combs’ infamous “freak offs.” The NBA legend took to X (formerly Twitter) and posted a string of 10 rolling-on-the-floor-laughing emojis, showing just how hard the story hit him.
Wayans shared the tale during his appearance on The Lamorning After Podcast earlier this week, setting the internet ablaze. He humorously referenced Diddy’s notorious parties, saying his experience at Murphy’s yacht bash was from a time “before the freak offs and 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 oil,” a sly nod to the recent controversies swirling around the music mogul.
Wayans went on to recall that, as a kid attending the yacht party with his parents, he had an amusing run-in with Emmanuel Lewis, known for his role as Webster on the hit TV show of the same name. The actor laughed about how he might have “harassed” Lewis back then, but it was all in good fun.
What is LeBron’s relationship with Diddy?
LeBron’s reaction came just as social media unearthed an old Instagram Live clip where he told Diddy, “Ain’t no party like a Diddy party.” At the time, it seemed like a harmless statement, but with Diddy now facing serious allegations, people have been quick to connect the dots.
Netizens flooded the Internet with memes and altered images poking fun at LeBron’s past association with the hip-hop mogul. Despite the noise online, there’s no evidence to suggest LeBron ever attended one of Diddy’s infamous gatherings.
Still, anyone who’s crossed paths with the embattled music icon is catching heat, and James hasn’t been spared from the speculation.
“King” James is busy with the NBA season
Meanwhile, LeBron is staying locked in on basketball. His LA Lakers are off to a red-hot 3-0 start after defeating the Sacramento Kings 131-127 on Saturday at Crypto.com Arena. James delivered a vintage performance, notching a triple-double with 32 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists.
With new head coach JJ Redick at the helm, the Lakers are heading into a challenging five-game road trip. As the team looks to maintain its momentum, fans are keeping a close eye on LeBron-both on and off the court.
One thing is clear: whether it’s basketball or viral moments, King James knows how to stay in the spotlight.
