LeBron James was accused of being an "Illuminati wizard' by a conspiracy theorist.

Even if you aren’t the biggest basketball fan, you probably know LeBron James. During his time on the hardwood, the current LA Lakers forward has established himself as one of the NBA’s biggest stars; he’s pretty successful away from the court, too. Not everyone, however, is a fan of King James’ body of work.

While there’s nothing wrong with disliking LeBron James from a sports perspective, one woman has taken things to an entirely new level. According to Sheila Zilinsky, who Right Wing Watch refers to as a “right-wing conspiracy theorist,” the NBA star is actually an Illuminati Wizard who’s summoning demons during his pregame routine.

These days, there’s nothing groundbreaking about saying that LeBron James is a global basketball star. With that being said, though, it’s still pretty impressive just how rapidly he’s risen to prominence.

James burst onto the scene at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School and, despite his youth, quickly became a fixture on ESPN. After graduation, he headed directly to the pros, joining the Cleveland Cavaliers as the first-overall pick of the 2003 NBA draft.

In Ohio, LeBron became a legitimate star; things ended on a sour note, though, when he infamously departed for South Beach. That move, of course, brought King James two NBA championships as part of the Heat’s Big Three.

James, of course, would return to Cleveland, where he helped the Cavs finally lift the Larry O’Brien Trophy. He then left town again, joining the LA Lakers and, in 2019-20, claiming another championship.

While the forward is getting up there in age, he’s still going strong. Even if you don’t think he’s done enough to surpass Michael Jordan as the GOAT, King James is still up there with the greatest players we’ve ever seen.

That success isn’t limited to the basketball court

When push comes to shove, LeBron James’ success begins and ends with his basketball talent. His stardom, however, isn’t just limited to the basketball court.

Away from the hardwood, James has shown a bit of a magic touch when it comes to business. One of his first financial decisions was turning down a massive deal with Reebok to team up with Nike; that move has since paid massive dividends. He’s also struck gold with investments in Blaze Pizza, Beats, and Liverpool FC, among other moves.

James doesn’t just earn money for the sake of accumulating wealth, though. The Lakers star has a charitable foundation, helping to send students to college and supporting the I Promise School in Akron, Ohio. LeBron also ventured into the political space with his More Than a Vote campaign ahead of the 2020 election.

LeBron James is an ‘Illuminati Wizard’ according to an Internet theory

Over the course of his career, LeBron James has added plenty of titles, ranging from NBA all-star to father and philanthropist, to his resume. According to an Internet theory, though, there’s another title on his CV: “Illuminati wizard.”

According to Sheila Zilinsky, who Right Wing Watch refers to as a “right-wing conspiracy theorist,” James is an “Illuminati wizard.” She also claims that LeBron’s signature pregame chalk toss is actually a “high-level conjuring, a spell, an incantation … summoning demons.”

During his time on the hardwood, LeBron James has probably heard all sorts of insults and trash-talk. Being called an “Illuminati wizard,” however, is probably a new one.

He covers the NBA and soccer for Sportscasting, with specialties in legacy NBA players such as Michael Jordan and Premier League club Arsenal. Off the clock, he's a Kansas City Chiefs fan and a hockey goalie. Growing up loving Shaquille O'Neal and reading everything he could about the great big men throughout NBA history — likely because he was still tall enough, at least relative to his peers, to play center — he's continued to love learning about and exploring the historical and story-based sides of the basketball archives. As for Arsenal, Joe spent a year living in London and latched onto the local support of the club. He's barely missed a match since, loving Arsene Wenger, enduring the Banter Era, and following along through rebuilds. The Premier League interest developed into a passionate following of the Champions League, Europe's big five league, and international soccer as a whole when played at the highest level. Regardless of the sport, Joe is captivated by the stories of athletes beyond the box scores and how they push the envelope — both in terms of what we think a human is capable of accomplishing and how they find new competitive tactics to win.
