LeBron James is once again being called out for lying on social media.
Earlier this week, LeBron and his son Bronny James suited up for the Lakers against LeBron’s former team, the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In the game, Bronny scored his first NBA basket when he hit a fifteen-foot jumper during garbage time while the Lakers were getting blown out.
LeBron told the media about watching his son score his first points in the NBA.

“To see him get his first NBA basket in this arena, where he grew up not too far away from here, that’s an unbelievable moment,” LeBron said. “Unbelievable moment for him, and for our family it’s just pretty cool to be a part of it.”
LeBron praised Bronny for handling pressure in the NBA better than him during his rookie season.
“He’s better than I woulda been in that situation… If the roles were reversed I don’t know if I would be able to handle it.”
Some fans believed LeBron was lying to prop up his son.
“Objectively, this is a top 2 lie he ever told” commented one fan.
“Dude is a top 3 liar of all time 😂😂😂😂😂😂 He had the most anticipated debut in basketball history and had 25 points, 9 assists, 6 rebounds and 4 steals. STOP IT” commented another fan.
While LeBron is currently having fun playing with his son, it appears that Bronny’s time in the NBA is soon ending, and he’ll be sent down to the G-League to work on his game.
