Hollywood star Jamie Foxx declares LeBron James as GOAT with hilarious quote: “He drinks GOAT milk and eats GOAT cheese!”
Jamie Foxx came up with a hilarious comment to declare LeBron James as the GOAT (great of all time). The Hollywood star recently made an appearance on HBO's "Uninterrupted: The Shop" along with James. During a segment on the show, Foxx said James was the No. 1 because he drinks GOAT milk and eats GOAT cheese.
"He's the No.1... He drinks GOAT Milk and eats GOAT cheese. He's the No. 1. I've had it, with all of y'all."
For years, there's been a constant debate about James' GOAT status. Some believe Michael Jordan is the best player of all time and have made strong arguments about LeBron not coming close to the six-time MVP's level.
However, James has the numbers, longevity and the tag as one of the best all-around players, which makes him worthy of being compared to MJ, who was renowned for his incredible scoring ability and killer mentality. Both these NBA legends have influenced the game in different ways, and the debate will likely live on forever.
As it stands, Jamie Foxx has decided to be on team LeBron regarding this debate. The two seem to have a friendly relationship, which may have swayed Foxx's inclination towards believing that LeBron James is the GOAT.

Jamie Foxx has both LeBron James and Michael Jordan in his all-time starting lineup
Jamie Foxx chose LeBron James as his GOAT, but he also respects and lauds Michael Jordan's greatness. The Hollywood actor once picked James and Jordan in his all-time starting lineup.
In 2020, Fox appeared on the "All The Smoke" podcast, co-hosted by former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, when he declared his all-time starting lineup.
Foxx will have LeBron running point, with Jordan as his backcourt partner. He picked the late Kobe Bryant as his small forward, while Kevin Durant and Shaquille O'Neal completed the frontcourt.
It's one of the most phenomenal hypothetical starting lineups someone has put together. LeBron, surrounded by shooters and scorers of the highest quality, along with a dominant big like Shaq, makes this group arguably the most unbeatable hypothetical starting five on paper.
The imaginary backcourt pairing of James and Jordan hasn't been talked about enough, either. The two GOATs would make a remarkable pairing because of their varied skill sets. LeBron and MJ are also good at making adjustments, which would allow them to become solid teammates if they ever had the opportunity to play together.
