LeBron James: NBA superstar shows off custom PlayStation 5 console

On social media today, NBA superstar LeBron James posted a new video showcasing his custom-made PlayStation 5.

Sony launched a new collaboration with James earlier this year that would pit the PlayStation brand against the legendary sports icon. 

James, the all-time NBA top scorer, has now displayed what the hardware looks like in hand ahead of the launch of the new PS5 system later this week. 

James highlighted the PS5, which has text and symbols that relate to his career, in a post to his official Twitter account.

James, who recently changed his number from six to 23, raved throughout the little video about what it was like to work with PlayStation on this project and what it meant to him personally. 

The PS5 will undoubtedly be put to use later today, he added at the end of the video. 

In the video, he said,  "This is insane right here. You guys don't understand. Being a kid from Akron, having a collaboration with PlayStation? Oh my goodness," 

"I gotta give a special shoutout to PlayStation, you guys are unbelievable for this collaboration. 

"This is so dope. [...] Y'all know I'm gonna be gamin' all day today, all night."

James recently dispelled talk of retirement at the ESPYs as he prepares for the new season with the Los Angeles Lakers.
