Stephan A. Smith and Los Angeles Lakers guard Stephen A. Smith have been going back and forth since a confrontation between the two when the Lakers faced the Knicks. James called out Smith for his comments about former USC Trojans guard Bronny James.

LeBron James could've had a quiet week away from NBA basketball as he recovers from his groin strain, but he's been embroiled in the news. James confronted Stephen A.

Despite the criticism, LeBron has remained consistent in his role as a father, continuing to support Bronny while ensuring he navigates his own path. As the tension between Smith and James plays out, James will look to keep his focus on his son’s development and the challenges ahead for the Lakers.
