NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said that Lakers star LeBron James's recent Instagram post, in which James shared a popular “Spider-Man” meme which appeared to show three identical superheroes pointing at each other labeled as “COVID,” “cold,” and “flu," was a "blow to his worthy legacy."
Writing on his Substack, Abdul-Jabbar wrote that the “implication [of the post] is that LeBron doesn’t understand the difference among these three illnesses, even after all the information that’s been presented in the press.”
Abdul-Jabbar went on to explain both the meme's context, but also information regarding COVID-19 and the vaccine's efficacy.
