LeBron James’ ‘message’ to Israel fans after All-Star Game question
NY Post
LeBron James had a straightforward response to NBA fans in Israel when asked about sending a message to them before the All-Star Game on Sunday.
The Lakers star was asked about rising Israeli star Deni Avdija, who made his first appearance in the All-Star Game on Sunday.
“For all the Israeli fans, what message would you like to send to Israel and what do you think about (Blazers All-Star) Deni Avdija?”
James chose not to get overly political with his response.
“I’ve been quoted on Deni already and what I thought about his season and I believe he’s an All-Star, and he is an All-Star. He’s playing exceptional basketball, so that’s that. And then, if I had fans over there, I’ve never been there,” James said.
“If I have fans over there, then I hope you’ve been following my career, I hope I inspire people over there to not only want to be great at sports but be better in general in life. So, hopefully, someday I could make it over there. Like I said, I’ve never been over there, but I heard great things. I appreciate the question.”
The Knicks have an immediate chance coming out of the All-Star break to set a strong tone for the second half of their season — in either direction.
