LeBron James recalls first person to ever receive his autograph


LeBron James has had a career that no one had before him and no one will ever have after him. The Los Angeles Lakers star has done everything one can possibly do, including playing in a game with his own son. James has played 22 seasons in the NBA. With that comes a time for reflection on the biggest moments of his career.

Recently, James was asked if he remembered the first person to ever receive his autograph. While James normally has a steel trap memory, he could not recall the first person to receive his signature, but he had a pretty good guess on who it might be.

James believes that if anyone has his first autograph, it would be his mom. The 'Chosen One' stated that he has been signing autographs since he's probably been in the eighth grade. So, it would make sense that momma James may have been the first to receive the honor.

Who better than your own mother to be the owner of your first autograph? I'm sure my own mother would be incredibly proud to own the signature of her son, who hasn't even put on a pair of pants today to do his job. Relax, I'm wearing shorts, people.

Welcome to the "Monday Morning Shootaround," Bleacher Report's recap of the weekend that was in the NBA. Along with getting you caught up on the weekend’s playoff action, we’ll give you a sneak preview of what could potentially be the greatest basketball book of all time, show you the best 70-year-old playground superstar ever, and tell you about a young star that just might choose religion over the fame and fortune of the NBA.

Luka Dončić joins LeBron James, Magic Johnson and Jerry West as only Lakers to post 30 points and 15 assists in a game

LeBron James joined a club of one on Tuesday , while Luka Dončić joined a club of four. With 30 points and a Lakers career-high 15 assists, Luka Dončić became only the fourth player in Lakers history to post those totals in a single game in a 136-115 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. The other three: James, Magic Johnson and Jerry West. We'll call that a solid group. That performance included a stretch of three straight 3-pointers to set the tone in the first quarter. It was once again the LeBron and Dončić (LeBrončić?) show, as Dončić's co-star posted 34 points on 10-of-18 shooting, eight rebounds and six assists. Center Jaxson Hayes also had one of the best games of his Lakers career, scoring 19 points on a perfect 8-of-8 shooting plus 10 rebounds. Dončić was two points away from tying his Lakers career high in points as well, and likely would have gotten it had L.A. not taken its foot off the gas in the fourth quarter. After a back-and-forth first half in which the P...
