LeBron James has gone viral on social media – but not for any heroics on the court with Los Angeles Lakers.

The all-time NBA leading points scorer, who stands at 6ft 9′, has instead been gaining attention because of the condition of his feet after one of the most fabled basketball careers ever.

A picture of LeBron on vacation has resurfaced showing his toes bunched uncomfortably together, with his little toe appearing to point across his foot rather than upwards.

Incredibly, the picture appears to have been taken over 10 years ago, with one report dated from 2013 remarking on the condition of LeBron’s feet.

Now age 39 and likely not retiring this season, the demands of the NBA has likely taken a far greater toll on his body.

James manages his minutes carefully for the Lakers, who this season are 27-25 after Monday night’s six-point win over the Charlotte Hornets.

James played 40 minutes in that game, scoring 26 points just two nights after starring at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night in New York against the Knicks.

He actually scored one point less that night, in the same amount of time, in an impressive victory for his team. The Lakers return to action Thursday on the road to NBA champions Denver Nuggets.

A podiatrist told The Sun last year that James could be spending up to $7,000-a-month to keep his feet in good enough condition.

‘For his feet generally, I would say that every month LeBron will be likely spending around $7,000 on podiatric care, orthotics, and custom sneakers,’ they said.

‘LeBron also has a complicated left foot and would need scalpel treatment to get the calluses removed and prevent ulcerations.

‘Now there’s rehabilitation for his right foot on top of that. That’s a huge bill – adding up to $84,000 a year.’
