Gallery: Behind the scenes of LeBron James’ Anfield Adventure

NBA superstar LeBron James was spotted in and around L4 on Saturday morning. Here’s what he got up to.

NBA SUPERSTAR LEBRON JAMES traveled to Anfield last weekend to take in his first match since buying a minority stake in Liverpool FC.

And while Kenny Dalglish’s men had to settle for a 1-1 draw at home against Manchester United, it appears that the weekend was a success for LeBron — he even learned what a championship trophy feels like.

Here’s the photo album.
