Honestly, how anyone can have anything but the utmost respect for LeBron James is utterly beyond me. The guy is a once-in-a-lifetime talent on the court, and a once-in-a-lifetime role model off the court. And it’s not just his philanthropic work that proves the latter, his public displays of fatherhood are at GOAT levels as well.
James’ three kids are all heavily involved in basketball (as you would be) and their dear old Dad is heavily involved in their on-court development (again, as you would be).
And while on paper it might seem difficult to blend a victory-obsessed world-class basketball brain with the gentle hand of fatherhood, LeBron’s got that shit locked down tight.
Case in point, this video of LBJ at his 11-year-old son Bryce‘s basketball game – one which apparently they won despite having no business doing so – in which Dad dissects the finer points of his son’s game while dishing out some sagely fatherly advice at the same time.
How’s that line at the end: “If you missing shots or making shots… don’t worry about it, kid. You played a hell of a game. You don’t gotta worry about making shots or missing shots.”
Google isn’t very helpful here but I absolutely need to know if LeBron can be my Dad now.
It’s a question that must be answered.
