Did LeBron James Make a Statement About D’Angelo Russell?

LeBron James is one of the most outspoken players in the NBA but fans were surprised when a post in which he criticized his Lakers teammate started to make rounds on the internet.

The news was posted on X by @thenbacentel and they quoted @jovanbuha which is a legit handle of a journalist on X.

However, it just turned out to be a fake post. For those who enjoy a good laugh, @thenbacentel posts outrageous posts to catch the eye of the fans.

Therefore, LeBron has never said anything about D’Angelo having his ‘ass in his veins’.

 

 

What’s Next For LeBron And Lakers After Losing Game One?

LeBron James had a decent game against the Nuggets, but all of his good work came in the first half of the game.

The King couldn’t have the same impact in the second half and the Lakers looked lost and got crushed.

The second game of the series is on Monday and Lakers fans will be hoping that James gets ample support from the likes of Anthony Davis, Rui Hachimura, and D’Angelo Russell.
