VIDEO: Young Girl Rocking Lakers Jersey Emotional After LeBron James Met And Took Photos With Her

A young girl who’s a huge fan of the Los Angeles Lakers is going viral after her experience during a Wednesday night game. She’s not just any Lakers fan, she’s a fan of LeBron James too. So you can imagine how pumped she was when LeBron walked up to her.

The girl was rocking her Lakers number 23 jersey, and guess what? LeBron noticed her! He saw her cheering and waving her hands like crazy and decided to give her some love. He goes over to her and not only shakes her hand but takes some pictures with her too!

This is what LeBron James had to say about meeting and taking photos with the young female fan;

“Thank goodness that I looked at my phone at halftime or I wouldn’t have even seen the reaction when I waved to her in the first half,” James said.

“To have that type of connection with someone where they can have that type of reaction, that’s what it’s all about.

“I’ve always tried to be a role model and someone that kids can look up to me — men, women, whatever the case may be — and try to make them proud and they want to come see me play.”

“That was a super-dope moment,” James said. “I have a little girl myself back home. I made sure that I went over and chopped it up with her after the game.

“I gave her one of my ‘I Promise’ bands and took a picture with her. … I think it will be something that hopefully she will never forget.”

So, here’s to LeBron James for being an awesome role model and for making this young girl’s day. We could all use a little more kindness and compassion in the world, and he delivered. Keep rocking that Lakers jersey, girl! You’ve got a great story to tell.
