Alexis Ohanian says LeBron James and Bronny James’ playoff moment was special for every parent
After the viral father-son play, Alexis Ohanian wrote on X, “Every parent here has to admit this is pretty awesome.” That simple message quickly gained attention because many parents felt the same way. Watching LeBron James set up his son Bronny James during an important playoff game made the moment feel bigger than sports.
It showed trust, pride, and years of hard work coming together in one play.LeBron has often spoken about how much playing with Bronny means to him. Seeing that connection happen during the playoffs made the moment even more powerful for fans.At the same time, Alexis Ohanian has also been speaking strongly about another topic close to him, women’s sports. In an interview with TIME, he explained how people doubted his decision to invest in women’s leagues years ago.
Many told him nobody watched women’s sports and said he would lose money.But Ohanian said he never believed that criticism. He explained that he even saved those old comments as motivation.“I laid it all out, and it was audacious to some, ambitious to most, but obvious to me, and there were lots of people trolling me in those comments. You can still see the tweet five, six years later, telling you no one watches women’s sports, you’re an idiot.
You’re going to lose all your money,” he said.He added, “And I saved screenshots of most of those tweets. And I saved those screenshots because I feast on their tears.”Ohanian said every new sellout crowd, revenue milestone, and record valuation proves women’s sports is not charity, it is strong business built on talent and demand.
