Candace Owens: LeBron Well-Meaning, But Has Low IQ

Political commentator Candace Owens pulled no punches when sharing her thoughts about Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James.

On a recent episode of the Full Send Podcast, Owens applauded James for being well-meaning when he offers his opinion on major social issues but also said that his overall intelligence in these matters leaves a lot to be desired.

“I just don’t think he’s that smart, I really do. I think LeBron James is low IQ,” Owens said. “I’ve heard him speak about issues, and he just is so wrong. He carries with him an arrogance which isn’t hard when you’re being called a king, and he is an incredible talent, there is no doubt about that.”

Now let’s be clear: despite showing an incredible ability to miss the mark with a lot of his political opinions and commentary, James has used his platform and resources for a lot of good. He started the I Promise School in Akron, OH to give underprivileged children a quality education and use his voice to try to inspire change.
