NBA superstar LeBron James led the Los Angeles Lakers to an impressive 130-114 win against the Atlanta Hawks recently. James almost had a triple-double with 25 points, 10 assists, and 7 rebounds. With this latest win, the Lakers are now on a four-game winning streak. Hawks star Trae Young led the game with 32 points on a losing effort. However, one of the biggest talking points of the game came after the game was over. NFL legend and media personality Shannon Sharpe was courtside in Los Angeles and met James after the game.

It is no secret that the NFL Hall of Famer is a huge fan of the four-time NBA champion. Sharpe has made himself clear many times that he is a fan and considers James the GOAT of basketball.

After the end of the game, LeBron James went to Shannon Sharpe, and the duo embraced each other. While Sharpe is a huge fan of James, his co-host in Undisputed, Skip Bayless is famously not.

This did not sit well with the former Tight End who felt it was a personal attack. The video clip of the feud went viral. Then recently, there was a feisty exchange between the two after the horrendous Damar Hamlin situation. When the Super Bowl champion wanted to explain why Bayless’ tweet about Hamlin offended him and why he wants it taken down, Bayless replied that he won’t delete the tweet.
