At this moment, he is in the port city of Lithuania, Klaipeda, where theNew Orleans Pelicans center organized a basketball camp, in which the country's most promising fifteen-year-olds are participating and improving their basketball skills.

But his kind actions were overshadowed by the parody of LeBron James. Recently, Valanciunas sat down with Lithuanian TV host Justinas Jankevicius in a specialized show, where he received the task of describing the NBA player without words.

Approaching Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron, the Lithuanian center rubbed his eyes as if he was crying. He also pretended to hit the floor after being touched lightly. This did not go unnoticed by the US media.

Today, Valanciunas was asked if his impersonation of LeBron James got the King's reaction.

"Look, if you don't have a sense of humor, you shouldn't look for help from me," Valanciunas answered with a smile on his face.

LeBron James has been accused by his haters of flopping and arguing with the NBA referees on several occasions.

It went so far that a social media meme was created out of his reactions several years ago.
