LeBron confirms he is vaccinated but 'not my job' to persuade othersLeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers laughs with Anthony Davis during Los Angeles Lakers media day at UCLA Health Training Center on September 28, 2021 in El Segundo, California. LOS ANGELES – LeBron James confirmed Tuesday (Wednesday, Manila time) he has been vaccinated against COVID-19 but said it was "not my job" to convince hesitant NBA players to follow suit. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar had previously declined to say whether he had been vaccinated, stressing that any decision would be a "private" matter for him and his family. Around 90% of players in the NBA are believed to have been vaccinated as the new season approaches. But as far as speaking for everybody and their individualities and what they want to do...that's not my job."
