Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James was selected for his 21st NBA All-Star Game. Unfortunately, he was unable to participate in the 2025 All-Star festivities due to ongoing soreness in his foot and ankle, injuries that have been affecting his performance.
This disappointing situation not only prevented him from showcasing his skills on the All-Star stage but also marked the end of an impressive streak—his consecutive starts in the All-Star Game now stand at 20.
Despite missing the All-Star Game, James made a special trip to the locker room to connect with the players participating in the festivities. His presence was a highlight as he warmly embraced several of the stars in attendance, starting with Jayson Tatum. Next, he greeted Kyrie Irving with a familiar dap. LeBron also took a moment to interact with Nikola Jokic. Karl-Anthony Towns received a hearty hug.
Victor Wembanyama appeared thrilled as LeBron offered him a warm embrace, recognizing the promising talent he brings to the league. However, when it came to Jaylen Brown, LeBron opted for a handshake rather than the typical embrace shared with the others.
Fans React to LeBron James Skipping A Hug With Jaylen Brown
When MFFL posted the video of James meeting with the 2025 NBA All-Star players on X (formerly Twitter), fans began reacting in the comments section. Several fans pointed out that James ignored Brown when they met, noting that James didn’t hug him. Furthermore, some fans proposed that this omission may stem from Brown’s previous critiques of James’ son, Bronny James. To add further speculation, others indicated that Brown’s current challenges with Nike could have influenced James’ decision to forgo that gesture.
James and Brown haven’t made any official comments about the incident. However, fans remain optimistic to learn the reason why James ignored hugging Brown.
