He’s done BOD, he’s done Conor McGregor and now Barry Jazz Finnegan is back with a sensational charcoal rendering of the great LeBron James.

With the NBA Finals in full swing, the man of the moment in the basketball world, yet again, is LeBron James. The Miami Heat superstar was sensational on Sunday night as he led his team to a win in San Antonio against the Spurs, levelling up the series at 1-1 ahead of Game 3 tonight in Miami.

JOE’s favourite artist Barry ‘Jazz’ Finnegan is also a big fan. Finnegan has filmed himself producing sensational portraits of Brian O’Driscoll and Conor McGregor in the past so when this video dropped into JOE’s Twitter account this morning, we couldn’t wait to see what he had come up.

And we were not disappointed, as Barry mixes brilliant footage of King James in action with progress of how the charcoal image is put together. The finished product is wonderful, and the video showing you how he got there is just as good.

Perhaps the man himself will get in touch with Barry to hang it on his wall?
