NBA player LeBron James didn’t back down from a car dealership that attempted to utilize him as a brand ambassador. James criticized this firm on Instagram earlier today in response to a post that said the King had bought a vehicle from them.

Not taking this well, James retorted on his stories by labeling them ‘clout chasers’ for exploiting his name to mislead the people. James even said the automobile they advertised in the article was not his.

LeBron James annotated the image in the Instagram story: “Stop the [cap]!! LIARS!! I don’t know y’all and I don’t even have that car. CLOUT CHASERS,”

Fans reacted similarly to LeBron James’ sharp remarks, criticizing them for their fabrications against the King. James has a large number of endorsements and personal brands.

It is easy to observe him use social media to advertise his products or to give certain businesses a shout-out. However, James isn’t used to confronting individuals for misusing his name in this manner, so this instance is peculiar.

LeBron James Posted a Birthday Greeting for His Son, Bryce

Bryce, LeBron James’s second son, turned 17 today. Every member of his family sent a message to the soon-to-be senior high school. James shared a picture of his youngest kid and a caption on Instagram.


As a senior starting the upcoming academic year, Bryce will probably attract greater university interest. At six feet six inches, he is ranked by ESP as a four-star prospect for the 2025 class. On his unofficial visit last year, he received a scholarship offer from Ohio State.

After winning the 2020 championship in the famed bubble, LeBron James & Co. want to reclaim their position as the best team in the league. Though there seems to be some excitement about JJ Redick’s potential arrival, only time will tell how things pan out during the Lakers’ pivotal 2024 NBA summer.
