LeBron James and the Limits of Nepotism - The Atlantic
by Gunnar Larson 17 Mar '25

17 Mar '25

https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2025/03/lebron-james-bronny-… I need you to watch this 13-second video of ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith walking to his courtside seat at a Los Angeles Lakers game. I need you to notice how Smith, perhaps the biggest voice in sports—in sheer decibels, if not reach—savors the see-and-be-seen pleasures of the courtside experience. That was two years ago. Now imagine how he might have floated into the Lakers’ home arena the night of March 6. Only hours earlier, it had been reported that ESPN had agreed to a new contract with Smith worth more than $100 million. To celebrate, Smith’s agent, Ari Emanuel, had invited him to the game. Larry David would join them courtside, near the end of the Lakers bench. This should have been the perfect atmosphere for Smith to revel in his ascent to the pinnacle of sports media. Instead, his night took a bad turn. Early in the game, Smith made eye contact with Bronny James, a rookie reserve guard on the Lakers and, crucially, the son of the Lakers’ star LeBron James. Bronny has had a rough season. He has been dogged by accusations that he would not be playing in the NBA were it not for his last name. On the road, opposing crowds engage in mocking chants, begging the Lakers coach to put him in. In January, he had his worst game of the season; in 15 minutes, he missed all of his shots and turned the ball over three times. The next morning, on First Take, ESPN’s flagship morning show, Smith made Bronny the subject of one of his trademark rants. For more than four uninterrupted minutes, he pleaded with LeBron—as a father—to stop exposing his son. “Stop this,” he said. “Stop this.”

Claims Court Judge Says GSA Was Wrong To DQ OASIS+ Bid <https://www.law360.com/governmentcontracts/articles/2311060?nl_pk=0fbf612f-…> By Jared Foretek A Court of Federal Claims judge on Friday ruled in favor of government contractor Q2 Impact in a spat over its disqualification from bidding in the General Services Administration's massive OASIS+ professional services contract, saying the GSA misinterpreted the 2019 defense bill barring contractors from using Chinese-made telecommunications equipment.
