LeBron James is one of the most popular basketball players in the world right now. Unfortunately, his popularity also makes him and his family vulnerable to some atrocious rumors. Recently, LeBron got a taste of the same when his son Bronny James was linked to a completely false rumor.

It was alleged that Bronny was exchanging direct messages with Larsa Pippen. However, this was not only a false report, but way out of line. Bronny cleared the air about this rumor on his Instagram story, saying, “I liked one of my best friends’ mom’s picture y’all are jus childish.”

Even Larsa Pippen was quick to tweet about this rumor which spread like a wildfire. She tweeted: “Some of these stories are so disgusting the fact that my sons friends can’t like my pics without some ppl writing some weirdo shit is crazy.”

It is truly disturbing to see these farcical rumors being spread about Bronny who is just 16 years old.

Savannah posted a befitting reply after her son was dragged into the mud by people with malicious intentions. She said:

With everything going on in this world right now, THIS is the sh*t y’all talking about… At the end of the day y’all are talking about a minor. I don’t care what type of ‘celebrity’ y’all think he is, he’s a child and the bullsh*t needs to stop. Y’all got the right one.”

Her words should be a warning for people who create baseless rumors about celebrities. People should remember that celebrities are human beings at the end of the day and we must respect their private space.
