What could Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s bizarre meme about LeBron James and Kevin Durant mean?

The meme the six-time NBA champion shared was of two animals, one leaping to reach the other. One is labeled Durant and the other James. “C’mere Kevin. I just wanna ask you a question”.

While Abdul-Jabbar’s caption invited people to subscribe to his Substack link, the meme threw some fans off, unable to understand what he really meant. “Incoming KD beef with kareem LMFAOOO,” one fan wrote, while others laughed and told Abdul-Jabbar they had subscribed to his link.
