IFWT_LeBron James Dion Waiters

The only part of this story that should be surprising is that Dion Waiters has kept in touch with Kyrie Irving since the media beefed up stories about a feud between the two of them but it’s obvious Waiters and LeBron James are not the best of friends.  We’ve all watched Waiters beg for James to pass him the ball, or shoot it when LeBron is asking for it.  We also know that LeBron reportedly okayed the trade that sent Waiters to the Oklahoma City Thunder and J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert to the Cleveland Cavaliers.  Still the media is going to continue asking Waiters about his new home and his relationship with his old home.  Here’s what he had to say.

Waiters said he has only spoken to Tristan Thompson and Kyrie Irving via text since the trade went down that shipped him to OKC in three-team swap that landed J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert in Cleveland.

He has had no communication with LeBron James. The All-Star has not called nor sent a text. Northeast Ohio Media asked Waiters if he would have preferred if James gave him a ring.

“Man, he had his chance to reach out,” Waiters told NEOMG. “I’m not losing any sleep.”

The two will face off this afternoon as the Oklahoma City Thunder will play the Cavaliers in Cleveland.
