After Antetokounmpo took Ben Simmons during the reserves portion of the draft on Thursday, James was not thrilled.
“S***,” he said. “You took my guy.”
But, the two players made nice and completed a deal which ultimately sent Russell Westbrook to Team Giannis and brought Simmons back to Team LeBron.
However, there could be a storm brewing on Team Giannis, who also have Joel Embiid.
Westbrook and Embiid have an extensive history in which the two players have gone back and forth at each other for the last couple of years.
It was only a couple of weeks ago when the two players had to be separated on the court in the middle of a game between the Philadelphia 76ers and Oklahoma City Thunder.
When asked after the game if he was cool with Embiid, Westbrook was blunt.
“F*** no,” he said.
Embiid had his own reaction on Twitter after the draft, writing: “Ok…….”
