How Lurk detects this
Lurk continuously reads the publicfollowing lists of tracked Instagram accounts and stores each “A follows B” relationship as a follow edge, along with the date it was first and last seen. A repeated check promotes an edge to confirmedonce it's been observed consistently; a brand-new sighting is shown as observed until it re-confirms. This page reports the observed state of the Will Smith → LeBron James edge as of August 13, 2026.
Everything here is derived from publicly-visible Instagram data — no login, no private accounts, no direct messages. It reflects what Lurk last observed and is not an official statement from Instagram or from Will Smith. Because follows change often, the live answer can differ from this snapshot.
