LeBron James combos
LeBron James’ neutral-special is a great combo starter in MultiVersus. After throwing his basketball, he can leap toward his opponent to regain the ball, then follow up with a neutral-air or forward-air. Afterwards, he can try to continue with another aerial or a grounded side-normal combo.

In addition, the basketball versions of both up-air and up-special are solid kill moves off the top of the screen. As a result, LeBron can try to get his opponents in the air with down-air or grounded up-normal, then juggle them with up-airs.
LeBron James perks

Perk | Effect |
For Three! | LeBron and allies that hit enemies with a basketball will cause the ball to explode. |
Hot Hands | If you complete a no-look pass to an ally, the basketball is ignited. Dunking an ignited ball damages all enemies. |
Keep Possession | When LeBron or an ally receives a pass, they gain grey health. |
As far as general perks go, LeBron thrives with Utility perks. I Dodge You Dodge We Dodge gives him a 10% cooldown refund whenever he dodges an attack.
This helps to ensure that he never has to go long without a basketball. Once he learns how to train perks LeBron James could replace this perk with Coffeezilla.
Meanwhile, the Gravity Manipulation perk increases his fall speed by 10%, helping him return to the stage quicker after he’s launched in the air. Finally, the Offence perk Make It Rain, Dog! grants a 20% speed buff to his projectiles, making his basketball throws even quicker.
