LeBron James of the Lakers violated the NBA’s health and safety protocols earlier this week, according to ESPN. James attended a promotional event for a tequila brand that he supports before the Lakers defeated the Warriors in their play-in game. The shoot was also attended by other celebrities such as Michael B. Jordan and Drake.
All attendees had to show proof of vaccination or a negative test for COVID in order to be admitted, but this still violated the protocols. The NBA won’t suspend James for the violation as they don’t believe this warrants such action.
