LeBron James is sorry for posting a lyric that referenced "Jewish money." The Los Angeles Lakers star says he simply got caught up in the music, thought the lyric was a "compliment" and offers "apologies, for sure."

The lyric comes from the song "ASMR" by rapper 21 Savage. James shared it over the weekend on his Instagram account, which has nearly 46 million followers.

The lyric says, "We been getting that Jewish money, Everything is Kosher."

James apologized on ESPN — "if I offended anyone." He says he regularly posts lyrics and listens to "great music" in his car. He adds: "That was the byproduct of it. So I actually thought it was a compliment, and obviously it wasn't through the lens of a lot of people."

Later the rapper tweeted his own apology .

James' posting was highlighted by Darren Rovell of The Action Network, a media company.
