LOS ANGELES -- LeBron James says he's taking a break from social media.
The NBA's all-time leading scorer and Los Angeles Lakers star posted on X and Instagram on Wednesday to announce that he's stepping away from his pages. James has 159 million followers on Instagram, 52.9 million on X.
James started the farewell by reposting something that Rich Kleiman, Kevin Durant's longtime manager, posted to X on Oct. 24.
"We can all acknowledge that sports is the last part of society that universally brings people together. So why can't the coverage do the same?
