The woman is Juliana Carlos — an Instagram model who attended the game with her husband Chris Carlos.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
The couple was sitting courtside — when the woman claims her husband got into a heated verbal argument with LeBron (which Bron confirmed after the game).
Juliana decided to get involved … and began screaming, cussing and flipping off James from her insanely expensive seats causing a huge scene!
Worth noting … the woman was initially wearing a COVID mask, but removed it to yell at LeBron.
In fact, the scene got so wild the refs stopped the game and the woman — along with her husband and 2 others — were all ejected from the building.
While she was getting the boot, Juliana flipped on her IG Live and gave her side of the story … complete with threats and LOTS of F-bombs!!
“So, I’m minding my own business, and Chris has been a Hawks fan forever,” Juliana explained … “He has this issue with LeBron. I don’t have an issue with LeBron. I don’t give a f**k about LeBron.”
“Anyway, I’m minding my own business, drinking, having fun. All of the sudden, LeBron says something to my husband, and I see this and I stand up. And I go, ‘Don’t f***ing talk to my husband.’ And he looks at me and he goes, ‘Sit the f**k down, bitch.'”
“And I go, ‘Don’t f**king call me a bitch. You sit the f**k down. Get the f**k out of here. Don’t f**king talk to my husband like that.'”
She was FIRED UP!!!!
After the game — which the Lakers won 107 to 99 — Bron was asked about the incident.
“At the end of the day, I’m happy fans are back in the building,” Bron said with a straight face … “I miss that interaction. I need that interaction.”

As for the couple, Bron thinks booze may have been a factor — “They might have had a couple drinks, maybe.”
“I don’t think taking down the mask harmed anybody,” Bron added … “I wasn’t close enough to her.”
Bron expressed concern for a few of the refs who got close to the woman — “I hope they’re okay. Safety first.”
The NBA legend then dropped a tweet — saying, “Courtside Karen was MAD MAD!!”
She sure was.
