LeBron Admits To Smoking Weed

[Pugz]

CLEVELAND (AP)—LeBron James(notes) struggled with sudden fame after appearing on Sports Illustrated’s cover as a 17-year-old and admits he smoked marijuana during his junior year in high school.

Those are two of the revelations in a book chronicling James’ rise from Akron, Ohio, hoops prodigy to NBA superstar.

In “Shooting Stars,” written by James and co-author Buzz Bissinger, James said the SI cover and the media attention he and his high school teammates received was difficult to handle.

“We had become big-headed jerks, me in particular,” James said, “and we are to blame for that, but so are adults who treated us that way and then sat back and smugly watched the self-destruction.”

Yeah but we all know Lebron has his head on right. We all know JH5 is dumb as bricks. I mean every kid unless they are really sheltered experiments with any types of drugs, alcohol, sex, etc. And although he had an eye on him at a very young age I'm not gonna judge him.
