LeBron James made history with his son but at least one person, former ESPN’er Michelle Beadle, is not happy about it.
On Tuesday night, LeBron and his son Bronny made NBA history when they became the first father-son-duo to take the court at the same time.
While many loved the moment between LeBron James and his son, former ESPNer Michelle Beadle did not.
During the latest episode of FanDuel’s Run It Back podcast, Beadle capped Bronny’s moment with his father last night ‘manufactured’ and “ridiculous.”
“If this isn’t manufactured, then I don’t know what the word manufactured means. But, again, I am not impressed, and I thought this was so ridiculous.”

Beadle’s criticism of LeBron isn’t surprising, considering she claims that the NBA star once tried to get her fired.
“He did try to [get me fired]. I was like, ‘I’m honored I’m even on your mind. Thank you very much, sir. That’s a very weird place for me to be,” Beadle said.
“My stuff with him started off not personal. I made fun of ‘The Decision’ like 400,000 other talking heads did at the time. I think, for some reason, that was it. It wasn’t personal to begin with, but now it will always be personal. It is what it is.”
