James: “SEATTLE!! That was SPECIAL yesterday!! WOW! Even when we had to stop playing for things we couldn’t control! I appreciate the love and hospitality towards me and my parents who came to the show!” to @JCrossover @DejounteMurray @isaiahthomas.”
On Saturday, James made an appearance in Jamal Crawford’s pro-am league. The CrawsOver in Seattle, Wash.
The gym was packed and fans had been seen waiting outside to get in all day and night before the game.

Crawford: “Yesterday will be something we will talk about forever! You understood what it meant to our community and went beyond Seattle. Indebted forever!!!”
As for James, he is coming off playing his 19th season in the NBA and his fourth in Los Angeles.
At 37 years old, he averaged an outstanding 30.3 points, 8.2 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game.
However, the Lakers went 33-49 and finished the season as the 11th seed in the Western Conference.
They missed the NBA Playoffs and the entry tournament, which was a huge disappointment considering the talent on their roster.
Before the Lakers, James played for the Cleveland Cavaliers (twice) and the Miami Heat.
He is a four-time NBA champion and an 18-time NBA All-Star.
With the Heat, he won his first two titles (2012 and 2013), and he won his third title with the Cavs in 2016.
In 2020, he led the Lakers to the NBA Championship to capture his fourth title.
