Alphabet helps Tiero get the match ball! James: Thumbs up for him! I don’t know what the referee is struggling with

Today, Lakers star James accepted an interview with the media after training.

After the Lakers defeated the Bucks, players from both sides and the referee started a tug-of-war over the game ball. At that time, Vanderbilt got the ball first, but was forcibly taken away by the referee and handed to the Bucks staff. In the end, Antetokounmpo took the ball from the staff and handed it to Doncic, who finally gave it to Adu Tiero, who was making his career debut.

James said: "Thumbs up for Giannis! I don't know what they were struggling with at the time. It was just weird, very strange. There are a lot of weird things these days. Thumbs up for Adu for getting the first point of his career! Yes, I know you guys missed me."
