The Lakers superstar is often seen at his 16-year olds game, coaching him and motivating him from the sidelines. Recently, LeBron, who has been busy promoting his latest release, Space Jam: A new legacy, was seen watching his son on television play for strive for greatness, a team in the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League.
The 36-year old was at his animated best and looked highly enthusiastic while watching the match. Meanwhile, James’ wife Savannah was seen filming this moment that has gone viral on social media.
