LeBron James shares childhood memories of playing ball on Christmas

It’s already understood that LeBron James is hyped to play basketball again on Christmas Day because it’s something he did since he was a child. This Christmas, James decided to not just take us back with his words as he did on Christmas Eve on Twitter, but also by showing his fans some classic photos of him working on his game on a Fisher-Price basketball hoop as a young child. As the legend foretold, he was already dunking on the highest setting. James and the Lakers will be looking for their first win of the young season on Christmas Day against the Mavericks following their opening night loss against the Clippers.

LeBron turned his ankle in the first game against the Clippers as well, causing him to miss the final moments of the game. The Mavericks will also be looking for their first win after dropping their opening night game on Wednesday against Devin Booker, Chris Paul, and the Phoenix Suns.
