Antonio Brown drags LeBron for letting Kevin Gates diss Savannah

Antonio Brown slams LeBron James for not confronting Kevin Gates over disrespectful comments about Savannah James.

Former NFL player Antonio Brown has publicly called out NBA superstar LeBron James for his response to controversial remarks made by rapper Kevin Gates about James' wife, Savannah.

Brown voiced his opinion on social media, suggesting that James should have confronted Gates directly instead of posting a subtle response online.

Kevin Gates recently commented on Savannah James' demeanor toward her husband, stating, “I don’t like the way Savannah looks at LeBron, I like the way them white women look at LeBron.” In response, LeBron James shared affectionate photos of himself with Savannah on Instagram, captioning them, “Kings don’t concern themselves with the opinions of peasants.”

Antonio Brown criticized this indirect approach, arguing that James should have addressed the situation more forcefully. Brown's remarks have reignited debates around how public figures should handle personal attacks, especially when family members are involved.

Brown is no stranger to controversy himself. He previously made headlines for posting a photoshopped image of LeBron James in a compromising situation involving Lakers executives, an action widely condemned for its disrespectful nature.

As the Los Angeles Lakers prepare for their next playoff game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, April 25, 2025, it remains unclear if LeBron James will respond further to Brown’s criticism.
