WATCH: Nike removing LeBron James banner in Cleveland

Nike started removing the LeBron James banner from downtown Cleveland on Tuesday.

ESPN shared a video of the process on its Instagram account.

Sherwin-Williams announced that the Nike-sponsored banner would be removed from their corporate headquarters after James agreed to a four-year, $154 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Nike put up the large banner when James returned to the Cavaliers in 2014.
