A Fortnite LeBron James skin is rumored to be coming as part of the next Icon Series set. These packs feature famous faces and unique skins and accessories. Next up is allegedly basketball all-star, LeBron James. If rumors are accurate, he’ll be next to purchase from the in-game store.
How to get the LeBron James skin in Fortnite
To unlock the LeBron James skin in Fortnite, players must buy the LeBron Icon Series Pack in the in-game store.
Unfortunately, the Fortnite LeBron Games can’t be unlocked for free. Instead, players have to spend V-Bucks on the outfit and other accessories. These can be found in the game’s store.
This isn’t the first time LeBron James has been matched with Fortnite. Back in 2018, a basketball skin was spotted called “Jumpshot.” It was thought to be inspired by the all-star player.
What’s more, during the Apple and Epic Games legal battle, LeBron James was mentioned in the court documents as an upcoming collaborator for Fortnite.

In a later tweet, they claim that they have “100% confirmation that this is true.”
While it’s not yet official, as Epic Games will need to confirm it, it certainly seems like the next Icon Series skin will be LeBron James.
Perhaps he’ll be rocking some Looney Tunes merch for a Space Jam: A New Legacy plug.
