Los Angeles Lakers superstar forward LeBron James has announced that he will take a break from social media. He shared the news via his personal Twitter/X account on Wednesday morning. "And with that said I'll holla at y'all! Getting off social media for the time being. Y'all take care," James tweeted.

This followed Ryan Clark accusing the Lakers of coddling LeBron’s son, Bronny James, as he won’t be required to travel while on G League team The South Bay Lakers due to the squad flying commercial. Many believe this criticism is what sparked James’ exit from social media.
