LeBron James uses the golf excuse that he doesn’t have an All-Star opinion

ByNBAUSA



Even like Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James continues in the twilight of his career, still facing competition at the highest level every night. However, even when facing the Utah Jazz, the fourth worst team in record terms in the Western Conference, the quality of the team does not matter. Players like rising jazz stars Keionte George will come out swinging, especially if it means a chance to take down the LakersLuka Doncic and James, arguably one of the greatest players of all time.

“Trust,” James share the postgame about what stands out to him about the level George is playing at this season.

Although the Jazz were unable to secure a victory in their 143-135 loss to James and the Lakers, George was able to take advantage of the opportunity. The Utah guard finished the game with 34 points on 45 percent shooting. It was another strong game for George. The Jazz guard has taken his game to a new level this season. However, even in James’ eyes, there’s a hilarious reason why the Lakers superstar isn’t sure if George’s play will earn him All-Star honors this year.

“I’m the wrong guy to ask that question, champion,” James said when asked about George’s All-Star credentials. “I’ve been watching YouTube golf these days. So I’m not the wrong guy to ask about that. He played great tonight and great when we played them. He’s playing a good ball against us. But, yeah. I’m more on Brian Bryan and Grant Horvath and Bryson DeChambeau and the rest of those guys.”

James’ comments about George were by no means disrespectful. Instead, just keep driving home his newfound love at the end of his career: the game of golf. Earlier this season, James shared on X, formerly Twitter, that he loved watching golf videos on YouTube.
