A six-year-old managed to will the Lakers to a win against the Denver Nuggets. You read that right. This isn’t an assumption. Even LeBron James said it. That fan went viral on the Jumbotron, screaming his lungs out and wearing a Shaquille O’Neal jersey. His passion inspired the Lakers’ effort against one of their toughest rivals. Luka Doncic couldn’t let that energy stay for just one night.

The fan, named Jackson Tuyay, attended his first Lakers game and left with unforgettable memories. The six-year-old was first crowned the ‘Fan of The Game’, receiving a $100 free gift card. But a lot more was waiting for him after the game. He got a special message from Luka Doncic’s camp.

According to the LA Times, Jackson Tuyay has received an exclusive invite from Doncic for the next Lakers home game. The Lakers are currently in the middle of a six-game road trip, facing the Houston Rockets tonight.  The next time they play at home will be against the Brooklyn Nets on March 28.

That’s when Jackson Tuyay will have the chance to lead a pack of Lakers fans once again. There’s something about the innocence of his support. “I just wanted the Lakers to win because I thought it would be cool,” he said. That was all the six-year-old fan needed to scream the entire night.

Jackson feels there’s a lot more wins coming for the Lakers. However, Laker Nation already appears happy.

NBA fans react to Luka Doncic’s heartwarming gesture

When Jackson Tuyay was screaming with everything he had, the Lakers fan followed. His energy was infectious, reaching even the players. Likewise, with Doncic extending an invite to bring that energy again, fans were delighted. “Luka REALLY our Franchise player!” a fan wrote.

What fans mainly felt Doncic’s gesture did was make Crypto.com a fortress. When they weren’t winning games, the building felt dull. The case against the Nuggets was the same until Jackson showed up on the Jumbotron. “He wants the crowd to wake up! It’s so quiet when they play at home! Y’all have LUKA DONCIC on your team! Stand up and shout!” a fan mentioned.

The Lakers are now a third seed. The team is currently on a win streak, picking up momentum right before the playoffs. In the postseason, it’s games at home that count. Hence, Laker Nation also made an additional appeal. “We need more of this and less billionaires that are too good to shout…. We need an actual home court advantage….. PLEASE,” one such comment read.

It’s after a mediocre patch that everything is clicking for the Lakers. They are winning games, and players have bought in. Those developments have inspired a passion within fans. If they can take it to the next level, the Purple and Gold’s championship pedigree naturally directs them towards success.

“This lil man is bringing the energy we need from Crypto as the playoffs are coming up!” another fan gave Jackson Tuyay his props. They seem to be in unison. LA may be about celebrity appearances at games. However, it’s a six-year-old kid who has become the most important fan in the arena. They want to see him as many times, screaming and reminding the Lakers of their purpose when the road gets tough.
