VIDEO: Sean Hannity Backs Stephen A. Smith Over The Courtside Confrontation With LeBron James

The latest news on the street is that Fox host Sean Hannity is throwing his support behind Stephen A. Smith over the courtside confrontation with none other than LeBron James. Talk about a showdown!

Now, let’s break it down. We all know Sean Hannity, the opinionated and sometimes controversial host of Fox News. Well, he took to his show to give his two cents on the whole incident, and let’s just say he didn’t hold back. He’s backing Stephen A. Smith.

The ‘First Take’ host broke his silence on the dispute the following morning, revealing that James had taken issue with remarks he made about his son Bronny, who is currently in his rookie NBA season.

However, Smith has repeatedly maintained that the target of his criticism throughout the season hasn’t been the Lakers rookie, but rather his famous father.

And as the 57-year-old rehashed the now-infamous war of words once again on FOX News Channel’s Hannity, he said he was grateful that the blows remained verbal.

‘He thought that I was insulting his son when in fact that is not what I was doing,’ Smith explained to the FOX host.

‘I was getting on him because he had gone through so many things to make – you know, have his son in the NBA and he was bringing unnecessary attention on his son prematurely in my estimation. He didn’t like that. So he confronted me.

‘It’s his prerogative. He didn’t put his hands on me. That’s all that matters. He can feel whatever way he wants to feel. I’m going to do my job. I love the sport. That’s what I’m going to do.’

However, if James had in fact escalated the confrontation to a physical level, Smith would have had a bodyguard in Hannity.

‘I would have had your back, if I was there, I’m just saying,’ Hannity insisted, before Smith interjected, warning that the host wouldn’t be the only one.

‘I had plenty of people that have my back. It wasn’t necessary, but I appreciate it,’ the ESPN personality added.

Now, we all love a good celebrity feud, and this one has it all – two big names, fiery arguments, and a polarizing Fox host who just can’t help but get involved. It’s like a modern-day gladiator battle right in front of our eyes.

We’ll have to wait and see if LeBron James responds to Hannity’s comments. Will he defend himself or just brush it off?
