LeBron James may still be holding something against Jaylen Brown.
The NBA shared a video via social media on Sunday that showed James going around and greeting his fellow All-Stars inside the locker room at Chase Center in San Francisco, Calif. It wasn’t missed by fans that James’ greeting for Brown was brief and the only one shown that did not include a hug.
Take a look at James’ interactions with Jayson Tatum, Kyrie Irving, Nikola Jokic, Karl-Anthony Towns, Tyler Herro, Victor Wembanyama and Steph Curry. Then compare it to the one with Brown.
Why might James be holding something against Brown? In July, the Boston Celtics star shared some criticism of LeBron’s son, Bronny, that went viral.
After Brown’s criticism of Bronny drew widespread attention, rather than deny things, Brown addressed it via social media. Brown tried to make amends by praising the James family for their accomplishments.
The matter seems to be fresh in LeBron’s mind, at least judging things based on how Sunday’s interaction went. It definitely could have been worse though.
