When asked which athlete receives the most disrespect during a recent episode of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” Stephen A. Smith provided an intriguing response.

LeBron James, in Smith’s opinion, is the most disrespected athlete. The media never stops talking about the star because of all that he has accomplished.

James has been the center of attention for the media for a considerable amount of time due to his status as the league’s top star. No matter where he goes, the LA Lakers player is always the buzz of the town.

For the 2024 draft class, ESPN has revised their NBA mock draft board. Bronny James was taken out and his name added to the draft class of 2025. Even more intriguing is the fact that he is still expected to be chosen with the 39th pick in the second round.

Following the viral nature of this, LeBron James expressed his annoyance on X. He insisted that his son be allowed to spend his time with the Trojans and that he be left alone. Although the four-time winner has now removed the message, it was previously seen by his fans and media contacts. This is how Smith reacted,

“LeBron is entirely and completely culpable for any kind of critique coming in Bronny’s,” . “Direction at this juncture. And it’s not wrong. I’m not saying it’s a crime. I’m just saying, own it. It’s you. It’s not the media. That’s LeBron.”
