LeBron quiet on shielded words to Lonzo: 'None of y'all business'

Few professional athletes outside of LeBron James can turn a possibly mundane postgame conversation into a media event. Yet LeBron struck again in that manner Thursday night, shielding his lips while talking to Lonzo Ball at the end of Cleveland's 121-112 win over the Lakers.

What did he say?

"None of y'all business," James told reporters afterward, via ESPN's Dave McMenamin.

Ball locked the vault too, saying LeBron "didn't tell me anything."

This is a story, of course, because of James' impending free agency and rumored mutual interest between he and the Lakers. For what it's worth, James said Thursday he's not paying attention to those reports.

After a Christmas Day loss to the Miami Heat in 2014, microphones picked up James using the word "reunite" while embracing Dwyane Wade. While that ensuing media storm fizzled out in time, ultimately the pair were reunited on the Cavs this season.
