Rather than solely focus on the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron James has bigger fish to fry on the basketball court this year. His son, Bronny, is, of course, playing for USC during his freshman season. We’ve already seen a few examples of James getting really invested in his son’s exploits on the court.
But Saturday’s might have been the best yet.
James shared an awesome story on his Twitter account about how his mother loved watching her grandson play on television. (Note: USC lost to Arizona State.) James noted how emotional he was just to hear this sentiment. As a proud father, I simply can’t imagine how happy he was:

Crazy man! My mom sitting right next to me just said “You know how amazing this is!? Sitting here with my son while watching my grandson on TV. I feel so present and blessed”. Shit almost brought me to tears just now.

That’s beautiful. That sort of thing transcends playing regular basketball, especially for an all-time great like James. When it’s your child playing the sport at a high level with your mom watching, it probably doesn’t get any better.
