“Is that Skip’s kid?” - Random person following LeBron James at Bronny’s game sparks hilarious comments and memes

LA Lakers superstar LeBron James was recently spotted at his son Bryce's high school basketball game. However, with competitive environments being the way they are, James received no love from the home crowd. With one high school student following James around, fans sent in hilarious reactions to the point of provocation.

LeBron James is widely regarded as one of the best players the game has ever seen. However, this aspect is also widely debated.

James is definitely one of the most polarizing figures in the sport. With several fans on his side, LeBron has also garnered a balanced rate of animosity from others. But given his statistical accomplishments, James is certainly in a class of his own.

Off the floor, LeBron is also known as a very dedicated father. With particular reference to his sons Bronny and Bryce, James is often seen in the audience supporting his kids.

With Bronny on the verge of heading to college, James has also been supporting Bryce's rise as a basketball phenomenon.

At Bryce's recent game, a high school student, supposedly the mascot for the school team, followed James around to provoke him.

The Lakers superstar could not have been less bothered by the provocation. However, the notion of a high school student trying to rile up LeBron is quite funny nonetheless.

James was seen trash-talking Bryce after the youngster missed a jumper during warmups as well. Needless to say, it all appears to be good banter for the forward.

LeBron could be seen limping even with a walking boot on. After suffering an injury in a game against the Dallas Mavericks right after the All-Star break, the superstar is expected to be sidelined for a significant amount of time.

LeBron James' timeline for injury

LeBron James suffered an ankle injury in the third-quarter against the Mavericks on February 26th. Although he played the rest of the game and helped the team secure a win, James paid the price.

After further examinations, it was discovered that LeBron sustained a right foot tendon injury. James has been experiencing difficulties with his ankle all season long. However, the injury will put him out of the rotation for an extended period of time.

The current notion is that James will be out for at least three weeks. Reports suggest that James will be re-evaluated after this point.

Needless to say, this stretch without James will be crucial for the LA Lakers if they intend to keep their playoff aspirations alive. With a 2-2 record since James was sidelined, the Purple and Gold team will attempt to build a winning streak on the back of Anthony Davis' current form.
