LeBron was caught this past Saturday in Lexington, Kentucky watching the AAU 4th grade championship tournament with John Calipari. His son, LeBron James Jr., was playing in the tournament and doing his best to imitate his father’s prowess on the basketball court.
In the video below, catch James cheering and coaching his son from the sidelines and tackling him after the game in celebration.
LeBron is soaking up all the family time he can get during the NBA offseason while he has some offtime. Being the best player in the world is hard work, and soon it will be time for him to get back to work as he rejoins the Cleveland Cavaliers in hopes of bringing the franchise an NBA title.
Whether or not he will be joined by the No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins by the start of the season is yet to be seen. Rumors have been running rampant that the Cavaliers may trade Wiggins for All-Star forward Kevin Love.
