From the discussion over at PhysicsForums[1], it seems the data-driven method that resulted in the value in tension is likely fine, but some experimental the data they used as input to their calculations was most likely not fine, as mentioned at the end of the blog post. An indicator of this is show in the plot from the Fermilab presentation here[2], where they replaced the previous low-energy e+e- data (from LEP?) with that from CMD-3 and got a result which agrees very well with the lattice calculations. The presentation also contains a nice intro to the whole Muon g-2 thing btw.
