LeBron James Jr.’s high school and AAU teammates always have to live with the celebrity factor that comes from LeBron James himself. That has positives — increased exposure for previously unknown players, other celebrity basketball players sitting courtside — as well as stress that can come from all that additional recognition and pressure.
