RNC plans to dethrone Lebron James for convention

A picture of Cleveland Cavaliers’ player Lebron James will be removed from the side of the Sherwin-Williams AmEx building before Republican National Convention attendees arrive for the July 18-21 event, building officials confirmed in a report published late Tuesday.

The lasered image is located on a building next to the Quicken Loans Arena, an update to the classic James sign that has become a popular background for selfies since the NBA team won the championship Sunday.
