LeBron James is the NBA’s biggest star and is often the main topic on sports debates show.

Over the weekend, LeBron gave Skip Bayless and his detractors a lot to talk about when he threw down some dunks while joining in during a lay-up line at his son’s AAU game.

Bron had to jump in the warm up line real quick 😳

This dude just can’t let his son have some spotlight. He’s gonna be a legit D-1 stud and Lebron still gonna be jumping in the lay up lines smh https://t.co/BfqezlaTNx

LeBron was also criticized when he ran on the court and lost his shoe while celebrating his son’s alley-oop dunk.

Oh SUUURE when LeBron steps on the court celebrating a dunk it’s “fine” and gets on “SportsCenter” but when I do it I get “warned” by the “ref” about a “technical foul” and get “talked to” by the “athletic director” 🙄🙄🙄 https://t.co/xh6Mz6YXO6

It’s pretty dumb to be debating LeBron’s enthusiasm for his son but it’s that time of the sports calendar where everything LeBron does is picked apart to death.
