Wed Feb 26 04:00:00 UTC 2025: ## LeBron and Bronny James Deny Involvement in 2022 Car Crash Lawsuit

**Los Angeles, CA** – LeBron and Bronny James have formally denied any involvement in a car accident that occurred near Littlerock, California in November 2022. The denial comes in response to a lawsuit filed last October by Kiara McGillen and April Lopez, who claim the Jameses’ negligence caused the accident, resulting in injuries and vehicle damage.

The lawsuit, filed the day after LeBron and Bronny made history as the first father-son duo to play together in an NBA game, alleges that the Jameses’ actions led to the collision on Pearblossom Highway. However, the California Highway Patrol reported finding no record of an accident at that location on the date specified.

In a Thursday filing, attorneys for LeBron and Bronny James vehemently denied all allegations, stating that any injuries or damages were caused by others or by the plaintiffs themselves. They are seeking dismissal of the lawsuit and reimbursement for legal costs. The filing lists 14 defenses, including claims that the accident was unavoidable and that the Jameses acted without negligence.

While the plaintiffs, initially claiming one was the driver, later amended the suit to state they were both passengers in a vehicle owned by Lopez, they seek unspecified damages for their alleged injuries. Neither party’s legal representatives have yet commented publicly on the ongoing case. The timing of the lawsuit, immediately following the historic father-son NBA game, adds an unusual layer to this developing legal battle.
