Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Offers Apology For What He Claimed About LeBron James
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has nothing but respect for LeBron James and everything the Lakers superstar has accomplished in his NBA career. Well, The NBA icon shocked fans with the comments he made about LeBron. I guess he didn’t like the way King James entertained crowds. Kareem offered his apology to LeBron after saying that his acts were “embarrassing”. The basketball legend was referring to LeBron’s celebratory dance and the Spider-Man post on Instagram.
Yes, Kareem is all-in when it comes to motivating people to get the jab. He wanted LeBron to use his platform and support our government’s efforts to get everyone vaccinated.
Kareem criticized LeBron and now he is offering an apology.
“All I have to say is this: I was there to give Carmelo Anthony the NBA Social Justice Champion Award. I’ve been talking to the press since high school, that’s 60 years of making statements,” the legend said on SiriusXM NBA Radio. “And I haven’t always gotten it right. And Sunday was one of those nights.”
“It wasn’t my intention to criticize LeBron in any way. He has done so much for the Black community as well as for the game of basketball. We may not always agree, but I want to wholeheartedly apologize to LeBron and make it clear to him that I have tremendous respect for him. And if he can accept that, I’ll be very happy.”

Kareem offers an apology, and LeBron has yet to respond
Are you biting into this one? First, he criticized LeBron and now he apologizes. Kareem really likes when people use their platforms to raise general awareness. He wanted LeBron to do the same. The four-time NBA champion had other plans though. LeBron didn’t want to take part in the whole vaccination process. He believes that everyone has the right to choose what works best for their bodies.
King James has yet to accept Kareem’s apology publicly. Maybe he won’t even pay attention to this. His team looks really bad right now and that’s his main priority. The Lakers have lost too many games and their chances to win the championship have dropped to zero.
