A woman, claiming to be a former employee of embattled, alleged Major League Baseball steroids provider Anthony Bosch, is now asserting that a close associate to NBA MVP LeBron James regularly frequented the clinic and each time took products with him designated for someone bearing the initials “LB.”
According to IBN Sports Wrap, someone she further identified as “Mr.Paul (LeBron’s childhood friend and one of his current agents is is named Rich Paul) would make monthly visits and carry off the agreed upon products. She further claims she knows Paul was a friend of James and workers at the clinic were 100 percent certain LeBron James was a client of the institute and the “LJ” in question.
Bosch remains under heavy investigation and has already intricately been implicated in what could well be the sport’s world biggest, single performance enhancing drug scandal. Former MLB MVPs Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun have already been snared in the probe, which, according to ESPN, could involve as many as 20 big league pro players.
Bosch has now agreed to cooperate with investigators, testifying against and providing further details about players who alleges were steroids abusers.
MLB officials are already moving to have both Rodriguez and Braun banned for at least 100 games or double the suspension usually renders to PEDs abusers on the grounds not allow did they violate the league’ substance abuse policy but repeatedly lied to investigators in the aftermath.

Ah, wouldn’t his initials be LJ?
There is probably not one professional athlete who is not on some sort of PED, or other enhancement.
First thing I wondered, but his name is LeBron...caps for LB.
LJ could easily stand for . . . Leroy Jenkins!!!
Would this be any surprise at all? He had the freak ‘roid jaw and overdeveloped physique when he was still in high school.
ya, LeBron has that look about him.
Does the NBA have rules or testing for PED, anybody know? this could be huge if it implicates one of the NBAs biggest stars.
Im amazed Tiger Woods hasnt shown up in this Florida ring yet..
Yeah, you’re right, probably Leroy Jenkins. lol.
Why do you think Tiger does PEDs? He isn’t large, not the longest hitter, and I don’t see how PEDs would even help in golf.
Don’t their rules involve random testing and haven’t they got tighter over time? James looked to me like he was on them back in high school, before he was drafted.
Best I can recall, they don’t currently test for HGH.
nope. The NBA has one of the weakest PED policies other than the NFL. You have NO IDEA what they face. They are only randomly tested in their first year. Then it's once a year during training camp month ONLY. The "penalty" is a 5 game suspension the first time and 10 game for 2nd time... they even have 4th and 5th time penalties that aren't for more than 20-30 games.
The best part is that the masking agents aren't even on the list for NBA policy so that just on the off chance they get caught on a fluke testing date , the masking agents will hide it.
You ever wonder how guys can run like the wind day after day after day... then travel and do the same thing. All the with minimal recovery time. It's good for the NBA to keep these guys juiced. So what if they're going bald, developing weak tendons and other pathology.... it's for the "league" and of course the money.
From looking at him you could assume nobama hasn’t been using steroids, at least.
it helps in training and RECOVERY. Walking 4-5 miles doesn't seem like a lot but doing that 4 days in a row is tiring. The guy with the freshest legs can make great shots on that last day. It doesn't make you big, it just allows you to recover. If you'd like, I can give a brief synopsis of what they do. The funny thing is that I suspected Tiger a long time ago of using steroids, because of the balding, the temper and the muscle he had. Think about the greatest golfers you've seen and I've never seen one that was a ripped as Tiger. Maybe a little pudgy. The other thing is the vanity of Tiger, he likes the attention and macho image which really isn't "golf's image".
He used an orthopedic surgeon in Canada that had questionable platelet enhanced treatments but just happened to also have quite the reputation amongst NFL players for "recovery" and "training aids". Up until he got busted when one of his assistants got caught transporting HgH and Testosterone across the border.
I don’t know if he is on PED but I do know that he is so ugly that he has to sneak up on a glass of water in order to get a drink.
The man is exceptionally distasteful in the looks department.
Good Ball player though.
I’m well aware of what they do as I’ve worked at gyms and I’ve trained with weights since 1990. Yes they help with recovery, but they hinder the mind. Being extra aggressive, and having depressive bouts is not good in a cerebral game.
Tiger walked within 5 feet of me at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra, FL. He is lean and not big. I’m 6’2” 200 lbs, I would say he was 6’0” 175 lbs. He looks bigger compared to most golfers because they are slobs. For years it looked like Mickelson needed to wear a bra.
I wouldnt be surprised if LeBron, LeChoke, LeBrick, whatever you want to call him, is on roids..but ESPN will cover up for him if true, he is their golden boy
