The alleged stalker reportedly did not make their way into LeBron James' residence in Los Angeles, but intruded on his property.

LeBron James and the Philadelphia 76ers put up a middling performance against the Cleveland Cavaliers last night (Friday, November 6) in his home city, which broke their previously successful streak to start the NBA season. But he was probably grateful to have attended, as he could've run into an alleged stalker that night whom authorities reportedly arrested at his Los Angeles home.

According to TMZ, law enforcement sources reportedly indicated the security team at the residence called police at around 9PM local time to report a man was allegedly intruding on the L.A. property. The security team reportedly identified the alleged stalker via camera footage. Per the report, the L.A. Police Department arrested the alleged suspect on the scene for stalking.

The alleged stalker reportedly made the bizarre claim to police that he was the basketball superstar's son. Also, the alleged stalker reportedly didn't enter the residence during his alleged intrusion and became the subject of a police report on stalking.

For those unaware, LeBron James is now living in New York City amid his time with the 76ers. His wife Savannah recently explained her decision to stay with her family in California rather than move with him. The TMZ report does not clarify if anyone was at home during the alleged stalking incident, beyond Bron's confirmed absence due to his game against the Cavaliers.

Where Does LeBron James Live?

LeBron James' decision to live in New York caused debate among sports fans, including a viral rant from Dave Portnoy. Sadly, no matter where he lives, a celebrity of his status will always face situations like this alleged stalking incident.

Elsewhere, on a more hip-hop related note, LeBron James' feuds don't impact his musical enjoyment. For years now, fans have been talking about his broken friendship with Drake. But Bron was spotted nodding along to the ICEMAN highlight "Whisper My Name" before a game against the Brooklyn Nets.

As for the alleged stalker's alleged claim that he's LeBron's son, there's no veracity to this or details to go off of. He wouldn't be the first celebrity to face rumors like these, nor will he be the last.
