LeBron James is taking a break from social media.
He announced the hiatus after retweeting a message about how sports media has too many negative takes.

And with that said I’ll holla at y’all! Getting off social media for the time being. Y’all take care ✌🏾👑

It's likely LeBron's move is related to online criticism of his son Bronny.
Bronny has struggled in his first two G-League games, averaging five points and three turnovers on 21 percent shooting, and social media hasn't been kind.

Bronny is also getting special privileges: He's only playing home G-League games.
It seems like Bronny either has to get better or LeBron needs to develop thicker skin.
