During a press conference after the game, James was asked about Celtics player Enes Kanter – of whom he replied, “If you know me, I don’t give too many people my energy, and he’s definitely not someone I will give my energy to.”
Injuries kept James absent from half of the Lakers’ games this season. The team hasn’t done well in his absence. But his comments about Kanter comes after the Celtics player used James’ likeness in a sneaker and now viral tweet.
On Thursday, Kanter, who plays center for the Celtics, took to Twitter to express his frustration with the Laker for not standing against Nike for their alleged use of slave labor in China.
