Instead of directly returning to the court, James took a sip from the fan’s glass of wine.While most found this hilarious, Portnoy was furious with James and claimed that the 76ers star is setting a bad example for his younger fans.“If anybody else did this, they’d be checked into AA, but because it’s Bron-Bron, SportCenter will do an hour special on it. Who cares [about] the example it sets for kids that you need to be drunk to play sports?” Portnoy stated on X.For what it’s worth, NBA fans didn’t like Portnoy’s comments and called him out for unnecessarily hating on the King.But will that stop Portnoy from taking jabs at James? Most likely not. After all, Portnoy has always been very vocal about his stance against the 4x NBA champion.Read more:‘Wanted to see if it was worth…’ – LeBron James breaks silence on taking a sip from a fan’s wine mid-game‘Framing the cup’ – NBA fans can’t believe LeBron James sipped a fan’s drink during a game‘He grabbed me’: Fan whose drink LeBron James took a sip of details what actually happened
