Someone Defaced Lebron James’ Mural Outside a Venice Restaurant | Eater LA

"I learned that the owners of Baby Blues BBQ commissioned LA graffiti artist Jonas Never to paint a LeBron tribute mural in their Venice parking lot on July 7—completed within 12 hours after the commission the same day James announced his LA move—but the mural was defaced a day later after a now-deleted Laker fan profile called Lakers Fanbase/Ben Osaze offered a $300 bounty and publicly shared the restaurant's address. The mural was spray-painted over with messages reading “No King,” “We don’t want you,” “LeFraud,” and “3-6.” Never said someone took the bounty and then reneged on payment, but he was able to restore the artwork in less than half an hour and it hasn’t been touched since; the owners still plan a mural at the forthcoming Baby Blues BBQ in Echo Park and may have to install security cameras to prevent further vandalism." - Mona Holmes
