Kevin Hart sat down with Jimmy Fallon on THE TONIGHT SHOW STARRING Jimmy Fallon for a conversation covering his firsthand experience at the 2026 World Cup, his feelings about LeBron James potentially departing Los Angeles, and details about his new comedy film 72 HOURS.
Hart described attending the 2026 World Cup and shared his reaction to the possibility of LeBron James leaving LA, a topic that clearly struck a nerve.
