There are only a handful of things that are more satisfying than seeing pro athletes come out of their shell.
Several of the Cleveland Cavaliers dressed up for Lebron James’ annual Halloween party in Akron last night, and it did not disappoint.

Kevin Love did the absolute most by flying in a makeup artist from Los Angeles to transform him into WWE’s Sting. His girlfriend, Kate Bock, accompanied him as Hulk Hogan. JR Smith kept it simple by going classic cone head.

And apparently it’s not Halloween unless a Kardashian participates. Tristan Thompson and girlfriend Khloe Kardashian went as Khal Drogo and Daenerys Targaryen, respectively.

Isaiah Thomas went as Easy E and it was scary good.
Kyle Korver attended as Willy Wonka with his own Oompa Loompas. Winning.

But the best costume of the night was the host’s. Lebron James dressed as Pennywise from “It.”

Although I’m not fully convinced this is Lebron. As far as I’ve heard, Kevin Love was the only one to fly a professional makeup artist in. It’s definitely no secret that Lebron loves to commit to his roles. A couple years back, he dressed as Prince.

And he was recently featured as a king on GQ. Still, I’m not taking any risks. There’s zero chance I’ll even get near somebody dressed as Pennywise this year.
