LeBron James revealed to reporters on Wednesday night that his family has been forced to evacuate their home in Brentwood due to the ongoing wildfires in Los Angeles.
James added that the home is not damaged, though the family is currently staying in a hotel.
‘Personally, I’ve been off,’ James told reporters. ‘Personally, my family, we’ve been evacuated since Thursday night, so I’ve been in a hotel since pretty much when we got back from Dallas. So, just figuring it out. But staying strong for one another. Obviously, that’s most important.’
The Lakers star said that family friends had lost their homes in the fires, which have ravaged the city since January 7.
‘I’m very happy that my family is safe, my wife, my three kids, my mom she’s been here. ‘Everyone’s safe, but it’s just been off.’
