The identity of the roar that shook the sky above the Philadelphia 76ers' training facility was none other than the dedicated commuter helicopter of "King" LeBron James (42).

Multiple media outlets, including US News in the United States, focused on LeBron's unique commuting method ahead of this season, as he has set up a new base in Philadelphia. Recently, after finishing his schedule at the team's exclusive training facility located in Camden, New Jersey, LeBron has been taking a direct flight via personal helicopter to the helipad in Manhattan, New York, where he resides.

According to the reports, a recent scene unfolded at the Philadelphia training ground. While teammates were conducting interviews with on-site reporters after finishing their training, the massive roar generated by the propellers of LeBron's helicopter overhead frequently drowned out the players' voices, preventing them from being properly captured by the interview microphones.

When reporters asked about commuting by helicopter, LeBron responded with his characteristic calm and composed demeanor. In an interview, he stated, "(Commuting by helicopter) is a method I have done before," adding, "For me, it is just another means of transportation. That's all," delivering a cool reaction.

While traveling by vehicle takes approximately two hours due to severe traffic congestion on the route, utilizing a helicopter can significantly reduce travel time to about 45 minutes. As a veteran turning 40 who is entering his 24th season in the league, the most in league history this season, it is a choice made to minimize physical exhaustion and maintain peak condition.

Meanwhile, LeBron, who signed a two-year contract with Philadelphia this summer, drew enthusiastic cheers from home fans during the final preseason game against Boston Celtic FC on that day, including by receiving a long pass from Tyrese Maxey and executing a powerful two-handed dunk. LeBron will now embark on his official journey starting with the regular season opener away at the New York Knicks on the 21st.
