LeBron James delights young fan with memorable moment


LeBron James shared a special moment with a fan during (and after) Wednesday's game vs. Miami.

In Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat, LeBron James made a young Lakers fan's night.

In the first quarter of the Lakers' eventual 117-108 win at Crypto.com Arena, James noticed a girl sitting courtside wearing a replica of his jersey. He gave her a wave and turned his attention back to the game.

The girl's priceless reaction at the time — shedding tears of joy while smiling ear to ear — wasn't something James noticed at the time. But it was caught by the broadcast on Spectrum SportsNet and quickly went viral.

Once the game was over, James found the girl, gave her one of his wristbands and posed for a photo in what was a memorable moment for the young fan.

"To have that type of connection with someone, where they can have that type of reaction, I think that's what it's all about, you know? I've always tried to be a role model and someone that kids can look up to," James said after the game.
