Like many of us, LeBron James is missing sports

The Los Angeles Lakers star shared a video that made him a little emotional on Friday afternoon about the world’s stoppage amid coronavirus.

Listen, it’s not easy out there. In the past, even during the most difficult times over the years, we’ve had sports. But due to the immediate need to practice social distancing in these times, leading to lay-offs nationwide, the distraction of a new sports match is impossible to find in the United States. With that on a lot of people’s minds, Major League Baseball shared a video on Friday of moments in which fans and players interacted with each other over the past few years, showing the connection the game can foster among us in order to try and cheer us up.

That message got to LeBron James, who shared the video himself on Friday, sadly mentioning how he misses his sports.

Not only can we not watch sports, many of us, especially those of us who love team sports, cannot even play them. Such is the cost of slowing down the coronavirus, something that James has acknowledged is a necessary one. Still, it doesn’t mean we can’t miss what’s been a daily part of our lives.
