Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James did not have a great start to 2023.The former Cleveland Cavaliers star and Ohio native was excited after the Cleveland Browns' 24-10 win over the Washington Commanders and celebrated with a congratulatory tweet to quarterback Deshaun Watson, writing:"Yessir D Watson!! Another one. That boy getting his rhythm back! #Browns"LeBron James@KingJamesYessir D Watson!! Another one. That boy getting his rhythm back! #Browns149921464Yessir D Watson!! Another one. That boy getting his rhythm back! #BrownsTweeting about Watson, who played his fifth game for the Browns today after missing the first 11 due to a suspension, proved to be a huge mistake, as James found out in the reply section to his tweet. Fans were highly critical of the Lakers star tweeting in support of Watson: Svetz@Svetz17@KingJames LeCanceled5415@KingJames LeCanceled𝘀𝗵𝗿𝗶𝗵𝗮𝗻 🪖@WentzToMcLaurin@KingJames Supporting sexual predators lmao MJ is the GOAT202334@KingJames Supporting sexual predators lmao MJ is the GOATwillminder@willminder@KingJames sorry my king i cannot support this43@KingJames sorry my king i cannot support thisCho 🇰🇷@thfc_cho@KingJames Lebron delete man2@KingJames Lebron delete manGLOCK@GlockRivers@KingJames My son is a huge fan of you.. he no longer will be supporting you after this tweet.

Deshaun Watson shines in Browns' win over CommandersWhile LeBron James' tweet supporting Deshaun Watson may have been ill-advised, the Cleveland Browns quarterback did have his best performance for the team against the Washington Commanders on Sunday.Watson completed nine of his 18 pass attempts for 169 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for another 31 yards on eight carries. Running back Nick Chubb delivered another incredible performance, carrying the ball 14 times for 104 yards.

He completed only 16 of his 28 pass attempts for 143 passing yards and threw three interceptions. He did score a rushing touchdown but failed to mask his horrendous outing on his return to the starting lineup.Barstool Sports@barstoolsportsTook Carson Wentz 3 plays to throw an INT1509119Took Carson Wentz 3 plays to throw an INT https://t.co/IbXXELrOywWentz's future in Washington and the NFL is uncertain. But the Browns will be delighted with their quarterback's strong showing and will be hoping that this win against the Commanders will be the start of something special in Cleveland.
