The other day we learned that Miami Heat rookie Shabazz Napier unfollowed LeBron James on Twitter and deleted tweets after LeBron announced he was leaving the Heat. Many fans called Shabazz salty & bitter. Well now he’s addressing the situation. Check out what he had to say…
Via ESPN:
Shabazz Napier disavowed any knowledge that his Twitter account unfollowed LeBron James and deleted a series of tweets following James’ decision to join the Cleveland Cavaliers.
“The whole thing about that is I don’t know how to work Twitter yet and I’m not on my Twitter, so I don’t know where that came from,” Napier said following the Heat’s 85-83 loss to theWashington Wizards at Las Vegas Summer League.
Napier joined Twitter on June 25, a day before he was drafted by the Heat. He followed James shortly thereafter. But days after James decided to return to Cleveland, the point guard’s account, @ShabazzNapier, no longer follows James’, @KingJames, and any tweets sent toward James have been removed.
“I don’t pay attention to it,” Napier said. “It gets brought to me by family members, but I don’t pay any attention to it. I just think it’s how it is. Media wants something to bite on.”
