BASKETBALL legend LeBron James showed off his golf skills - and fans told him to "stick to NBA."
The 37-year-old Los Angeles Laker heads into the new season chasing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's all-time scoring record.
James will be hoping the Lakers can put together a strong campaign after missing out on the playoffs in 2021.
LeBron is back in training ahead of LA's first game later this month and was spotted hitting Top Golf in Las Vegas during some downtime.
The four-time NBA MVP was filmed trying out his swing in the Black Clover Suite.
But his efforts were roundly mocked by golfers after producing what one commenter termed a "vile" effort.

James is seen taking an iron shot and certainly looking the business as he shapes up to hit.
Things fall apart quite quickly though, as the NBA star takes a tiny backswing and hacks away.
Luckily for him, our view of his potentially stationary ball is obscured.
But considering LeBron didn't look down the range, it's safe to assume it didn't make it far from the tee.

Viewers were quick to pile on the video, which was tagged: "Vegas tip - don't take golfing lessons from LeBron."
While many believed James' effort settled the age-old argument about who is better - the Akron-born star or Michael Jordan.
One fan wrote: "At least I'm better than Lebron at one sport."
While another added: "Kinda crazy to say I’m light years better at a sport than Lebron."
And a third joked: "Bet he won't golf with Jordan!"
A fourth said: "Just another sport Mike is better at."
While another quipped: "This could affect his legacy."
