So what really happened between LeBron James’ mom and Delonte West? LeBron James is one of the most incredible athletes the game of basketball has seen. And with the fame and fortune that he has gained throughout his professional career, he has found his name caught up in several rumors surrounding his love life. As LeBron’s name gets tossed into the rumor mill pretty frequently, LeBron James’ mom Gloria James has had that same issue as just a few years ago she was rumored to have slept with NBA player Delonte West, one of LeBron’s former teammates from the Cleveland Cavaliers. Although presented as gossip, both LeBron’s mom and Delonte West caught a massive amount of backlash over the alleged sex that they had together. And it was said that the rumor drove LeBron to want to leave the Cavs and find a new NBA home. The question of whether or not the rumor was true has still remained up in the air for years. But now Delonte West has officially shot down the rumors and denied ever sleeping with LeBron’s mom for those who are still aren’t convinced that it didn’t happen:
Speaking to the The Dallas Morning News, West denied sleeping with Gloria. ”If we want to continue to grow as a human race, what are we teaching our kids if we try to make humor and fun out of stuff like that?” West says of the rumor. “Number one, something like that never happened. I don’t know where they got that from.
“For a strong black woman like that, for people to try to tear her down, that’s terrible. That’s terrible in so many ways.”
Despite what people think happened between LeBron James’ mom and Delonte West, he Delonte says the rumor was a lie.
LOL I never believed this anyway. Lebron’s mom is crazy, I doubt a young rich basketball player would want to smash.
Ewww. I hope he didn’t.
Why would he admit to it though?
Exactly. And that whole soapbox speech he gave was a fail. It made him seem even more guilty. IMO
Wasn’t West the guy that got pulled over riding a motorcycle wearing 2 sawed off shotguns, that were loaded on his back looking like Ghostrider?
Delonte West looks like he is crazy. For all we know, LeBron paid him off like he paid off his other Baby Mommas!
Don’t nobody want Lebron’s old ghetto a– mama.
That would be SICK. lmao
Let’s be real. He probably did smash but he’d never admit that. Can’t even blame him for lying either.
LOL at his answer. Trying to sound all deep and sh-t. Ninja PLEASE.
