It is the dream of every NBA fan to watch their favorite player in action. However, what makes the experience even more realistic is court-side seats. It gives fans the opportunity to interact with players and get the best view in the house. For a little kid, this seat made his dream come true. During the game between Los Angeles Lakers and Washington Wizards, LeBron James made a young fan’s day before creating history himself.
With the way the purple and gold have played so far, the King hasn’t had a satisfactory season. While he has grown his legacy in many ways, LeBron hasn’t seen much team success. Currently, in the picture for the play-in tournament, the Lakers have not delivered according to the expectations set on them. Because of constant injuries to Anthony Davis and Westbrook’s poor form, the Akron Hammer has been left alone. However, this doesn’t stop him from being the nice guy he is.
