Chris Bosh has some fun with LeBron James’ mask

LeBron James thinks pretty highly of himself, and why not? He’s arguably the best all-around player in the NBA these days.

So it makes sense that at least one of James’ teammates would find it necessary to cultivate the NBA star’s superstar status by donning the protective mask James has worn in recent games to protect his broken nose.

Miami Heat teammate Chris Bosh posted a photo of himself wearing James’ mask and a towel cape to Instagram on Thursday alongside the caption, “I’m BATMAN!!!!!!!!”

Plenty of on-court fashion critics have poked fun at James’ choice of protective gear, saying the carbon-fiber mask makes him look more like a comic book villain than NBA player. But Bosh seems to be a little more successful in making the whole Batman look come to life.

It must be the towel cape.
