This LeBron James toy became viral on social media after a boy mispronounced the NBA Superstars name and said LeBron Jahamez

A video of a young boy mispronouncing LeBron James name while holding a LeBron James toy action figure has led to the toy getting an interesting nickname on social media. In the video, the kid is trying to say LeBron James but mispronounces it and says LeBron Jahamez twice before finally getting it right the third time.

The mistake has led to an outburst of people posting tiktoks and other social media content with the ‘LeBron Jahamez’ toy taking center stage. The video of the boy saying LeBron Jahamez has become so popular that a YouTuber made a remix song out of it.

What toy action figure is it really?

It is a LeBron James toy that was made under the Heroes of Goo Jit Zu line of toys manufactured by Moose Toys.

In the movie, LeBron James teams up with the Looney Tunes ‘Tune Squad’ to defeat their common enemy and so the toy shows LeBron James or ‘LeBron Jahamez’ fitted in a toon squad jersey.
