LeBron Wears a Mask Because He’s More Than a Man

LeBron James and the Miami Heat defeated the New York Knicks last night in blowout fashion, winning 108-82. James had a very impressive night, scoring 31 points on 13 of 19 shooting while dishing out 4 assists and grabbing 4 rebounds.

The story of the night however, wasn’t about his stellar performance, but about his attire. LeBron debuted his shiny new black mask that is supposed to protect the broken nose he suffered last Thursday. The media world exploded right when he took the court and his black mask already has a Twitter handle (@LBJ_BlackMask). The comments were endless from him copying Kobe Bryant’s mask from a couple years back to it not being clear so it could hide his receding hairline.

But the most prominent remarks were comparing him to a superhero or evil villain. Well, we had some fun with this and created a few visuals…
