NBA journalist Yaron Weitzman recently released a new book called “A Hollywood Ending: The Dreams and Drama of the LeBron Lakers.” He says that the Los Angeles Lakers organization threatened to sue him to prevent that from happening. Weitzman has covered the NBA for over a decade, writing for outlets such as Fox Sports, Bleacher Report, SB Nation, SLAM, and Awful Announcing. He’s also the author of “Tanking to the Top,” about the Philadelphia 76ers and “The Process.” “From the Succession-like power struggle between the Buss children, to the rise of LeBron’s landscape-altering talent agency and its attempts to assert its own power within the Lakers’ walls, to the evolution of LeBron’s priorities and political voice, ‘A Hollywood Ending’ is the definitive story of an American icon’s final years on stage, one portraying him, a fabled NBA franchise, and the world of modern professional sports in a light never seen before,” reads the book description.
