Stephen A. Smith accused Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James of using his son Bronny James "as an excuse" to confront the ESPN analyst on the sideline of a March 6 game against the New York Knicks.

In a viral moment, James challenged Smith on the sidelines of the game after Smith had pleaded in an episode of “First Take” for James to step in “as a father” and stop the Lakers from giving Bronny James any playing time after Los Angeles drafted him with the 55th pick in the NBA draft.
