After the Lakers win over the Phoenix Suns, LeBron James made a light hearted dig at Jim Harbough.
PHOENIX — Even NBA star LeBron James is relishing the chance to tease Michigan over its college football sign-stealing scandal. The 19-time All-Star took a light-hearted swipe at the Wolverines and coach Jim Harbaugh in the aftermath of the Los Angeles Lakers’ win over the Phoenix Suns on Friday night. James grew up in Ohio, home to Michigan’s biggest rival: Ohio State.
'The best thing about tonight is we were able to get those signals and we’ll still be able to play on Sunday,' James said, referring to his team’s next game. 'We won’t get suspended, like that team up north.' The Big Ten Conference banned Harbaugh from coaching at Michigan’s three remaining regular-season games on Friday, escalating an extraordinary confrontation with college football’s winningest program over a sign-stealing scheme that has rocked the sport.
