The worlds of sports and gaming are merging as more athletes embrace video games as a favourite pastime.
For many, gaming offers a way to unwind after intense training sessions, while also providing a competitive outlet outside of their sport.
Athletes like LeBron James, Neymar Jr., and JuJu Smith-Schuster are known for their passion for gaming.
Often streaming their gameplay online and connecting with fans through platforms like Twitch.
Whether they’re playing popular titles like "Call of Duty," "FIFA," or "Fortnite," these athletes find parallels between gaming and sports, such as strategy, teamwork, and the thrill of competition.
Gaming has also become a way for athletes to bond with teammates, stay mentally sharp, and even explore new sponsorship opportunities within the rapidly growing esports industry.
As the lines between traditional sports and gaming continue to blur, the connection between the two is only set to deepen.
