On Sunday, James then tweeted to call Trump a loser.
"LUUUOOOOOOOOZZZZZEEEEERRRRR," he said, tagging the actor Jim Carrey, who used the phrase during his 1994 role as the pet detective Ace Ventura and, mocking Trump, in the latest episode of "Saturday Night Live." "BIG MOOD."
James has repeatedly clashed with Trump over the past four years. In September 2017, he called Trump a "bum" for withdrawing his offer for the Golden State Warriors to come to the White House after their NBA Finals victory.
In an interview with 2018, James said Trump was "someone who doesn't understand the people" and "really don't give a f--- about the people."
Amid James' involvement in this year's election, Trump described the NBA star as "nasty" and a "hater" during an interview with Rush Limbaugh, while he also basked in chants of "LeBron sucks" at a recent rally in Pennsylvania.
Biden will be inaugurated as president on January 20.
