Cleveland fan kicked out after harassing LeBron James, holding up offensive shirts

At least one fan didn’t appreciate LeBron James’ return to Cleveland this week.

An Akron, Ohio-area man was thrown out of the Los Angeles Lakers’ 115-108 win over the Cavaliers at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on Monday night after he brought several T-shirts that took offensive shots at James, according to Cleveland.com.

The 49-year-old, who was not identified, was not arrested and is not facing any charges from the incident.
