And here are photos of LeBron participating in the Cleveland Cavaliers' first training camp practice on Saturday, Sept. 27, as captured by the Cleveland Plain Dealer:

I guess LeBron really is serious about getting thin all over these days.

Observations of and resultant jokes about LeBron's receding hairline are nothing new, of course, but there does seem to be some mischief afoot with the shifting borders of James' forehead that suggests he might be dabbling in something like the Bigen treatment, if not quite as blatantly and absurdly as Carlos Boozer did once upon a time.

Far be it from me to tell LeBron how to wear his hair/paint-like hair product; I'm not exactly a stylist, as my hair/beard/mustache choices clearly proves. You might want to think about picking a path and sticking with it, though, Mr. James, if for no other reason than it'll make it easier for you to remember which gauge of headband you need to grab on any given night. One less thing to worry about, right?
