LeBron James took a moment during Friday’s game against the Detroit Pistons to fire back at a heckling fan who insulted his mother.
After hearing a fan sitting near the court behind the Heat’s bench mention his mother’s name, James walked toward the scorer’s table and addressed the male fan.
The unidentified fan reportedly yelled, “Is your Mom going to Boston for Valentine’s Day?” The statement was made in reference to the rumors circulating last May that Gloria James was involved in a relationship with James former teammate and current Boston Celtics guard Delonte West.
James responded to the fan, who shouted the comments within earshot of James’ two young sons. “I don’t care what you say to me. I don’t give a [expletive] what you say,” said James. “But don’t be disrespectful.”
