Study finds LeBron is NBA's most disliked player on Twitter

Twitter users have had a lot of negative things to say about LeBron James of late, according to a new study.

Examining tweets from the last month that contained negative keywords and phrases, Betonline.ag determined that the Los Angeles Lakers star received the most hate among NBA players.

Kevin Durant had the second-highest total of negative tweets directed at him, with James Harden, Kyrie Irving, and Russell Westbrook rounding out the top five.

While the Lakers have struggled this season, James has been performing well. The 37-year-old is averaging a league-high 30 points per game and recently passed Karl Malone for the No. 2 spot on the NBA's all-time scoring list.
