LeBron James has long been accustomed to the praise and criticism of being a superstar. The Los Angeles Lakers star has faced scrutiny not only for his performance on the court but also for his family, particularly his son, Bronny James. Through it all, the 39-year-old has maintained his composure.
However, it seems LeBron’s patience has reached its limit. On Wednesday, the Lakers legend announced on his X account that he would be stepping away from social media.
“And with that said I’ll holla at y’all! Getting off social media for the time being. Y’all take care,” LeBron tweeted.
The announcement surprised NBA fans, especially given the Lakers’ stellar start to the season. With a 10-4 record, the team holds the third spot in the Western Conference. The team recently defeated the Utah Jazz in a thrilling 124-118 victory.
LeBron’s decision to log off has sparked mixed reactions from fans. Some view it as a strategic choice to focus entirely on his game and help the Lakers contend for another championship.
However, not all responses were supportive. Critics took to the comment section to mock the 39-year-old legend, continuing the cycle of scrutiny that has followed him throughout his career.
LeBron James Praises Rookie Dalton Knecht
The Lakers’ recent win over the Jazz saw rookie Dalton Knecht rise to stardom. Knecht scored a career-best 37 points in the game. Following the game, LeBron James remained quick to appreciate the rookie star.
“I don’t know. The same s**t I said last year. Everybody on the internet calls me a liar all the time. They say I lie about every f—ing thing. So what am I now? I’ve been said it. I watched him; I watched Tennessee a lot,” James said.
“I did not think he was going to fall to us: I thought it would be impossible. I have no idea how that happened but very grateful and very happy that he’s here… knew exactly what we was getting when he fell to 17,” he added.
The Lakers have improved to 2-0 in the season’s NBA Cup game. However, their next game is on Thursday against the Orlando Magic.
