Jerry Jones praises LeBron James after 1957 photo reviews

K&C's masterpiece, 105.3 The Fan

Jerry Jones took a unique path to respond to very public criticism of LeBron James over the Dallas Cowboys owner's controversial 1957 photo...choosing to do nothing but shower the star with praise of the NBA.

Jones was asked Friday about Bron's comments on Wednesday during his weekly radio hit on K&C Masterpiece on 105.3 The Fan of Audacy...and instead of revealing his thoughts on it all, he chose to simply compliment the Lakers forward.

For about two minutes, Jones called James an incredible person... saying the basketball player is "an absolute great ambassador for the sport" whom he respects more than anyone else in the world.< /p> Los Angeles Lakers

Jones added that it "brought buttons out of my waistcoat" despite James previously identifying as a huge Cowboys fan.

But when it came time to respond to James' comments, the 80-year-old stepped aside.

“I just give him thanks,” Jones said. "I just agree with him there. Certainly he has influence, and just because of all of the above. His accomplishments, how he used his sport and how he used his platform. How we We did it. He made basketball better, he made a lot of people a lot of money. But I hope so did I."
