Leaked Audio Reveals LeBron James’ Family Distress as Private Conversation With Richard Jefferson Clarifies Stephen A. Smith Drama

LeBron James-Stephen A. Smith controversy sparks again! The veteran analyst did all he could to douse the fire. He went on his podcast show and took an unusual route. Instead of addressing the confrontation with full-blown theatrics, Smith handled it with a gravelly tone. Not to forget the infamous line, “That wasn’t a basketball player confronting me,” and highlighted that Bron spoke to him as the father of Bronny James. Well, that didn’t seem to sit well with Bron!

Last night, we thought it was all about the historic rivalry. Looks like the Akron Hammer had time for a bit of banter. Linking up with his former teammate and best buddy, Richard Jefferson, on the court, James expressed his reaction to SAS’s dramatic monologue.

During the pre-game shoot-around at the TD Garden, Jefferson reached out to on the court and engaged in an animated conversation. Of course, it grabbed the camera’s attention, and here we have the superstar’s reaction to SAS’s rhetoric on his son. In the video circulating on the internet, Bron can be seen saying, “Once he talks about, ‘I’m pleading you as a father,’ I can’t… that’s the only thing I’m tripping.”

 

LeBron James certainly didn’t like the way A. Smith turned the confrontation into a father’s outcry. However, on the contrary, Bron was the one who said, “Stop F-ing with my son. That’s my f-ing son,” in the initial leaked audio. Nevertheless, we will only have further developments in the issue if the veteran analyst decides to react to Bron’s conversation with Jefferson. Until then, it’s pretty sealed up.
