NBA superstar LeBron James pushed back against accusations of nepotism directed at his eldest son, Bronny James, on June 9, 2026.
“Not letting that s–t slide,” James said, according to the New York Post headline summarizing his response to online critics. The brief but pointed remark was aimed at social-media users who argued that Bronny’s opportunities in basketball stem more from his father’s fame than from his own skills.
James did not offer additional details in the reported response, but the comment underscored his refusal to tolerate what he views as unwarranted attacks on his family’s achievements.
