Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James randomly complaining to a young Lakers fan sitting behind him turned into one of the best memes in a while.
During Friday night’s series-winning Game 6 in Houston, James sat on the Lakers bench and proceeded to complain about something to a bewildered fan sitting right behind him.
This kid genuinely couldn’t believe that James was talking to him, much less complaining to him about something that just happened in the game.
Seriously, this is just priceless. This kid is going to become the stuff of internet legend for this amazing LeBron encounter. The King just talked to this kid like he was part of the team; it’s so, so great.
