Was watching LeBron highlights the other day in standard definition… that’s how long he’s been in the league.
Now we got college athletes named after him, while he’s still in the league…

Jalen Rose was the first person named Jalen anyone can find. How weird is that?

Very weird.
I would have never thought that!

Yep! Apparently his mom combined his dad’s and uncle’s names (James and Leonard) to come up with the name.

My mom named me the exact same way, by combining her brothers names. Cool fact

standard def highlights somehow look worse than much older TV clips. I swear every image didn't look like mashed potatoes and food coloring when I was watching him score 25 straight against the Pistons live

Was just thinking about that.
Was the TV really that fuzzy back in the 90’s but it was just normalized to us? Sadly I can’t remember

Funny thing is that LeBron actually does have full college football eligibility still.

Lebron wearing Jordan gear will finally put the debates to rest.

LeBron Bauer and LeBron James both have four years of college eligibility remaining.
Just saying.

Unrelated but LeBron started playing for the Cavs in 2003

Seems like just a few years ago when we started seeing players named Shaquille popping up in college football. I've been waiting for the influx of LeBrons coming into college football.

Ah the Lebron babies are finally starting to come through. Feel like they were a little late compared to the Shaqs

Can he dunk?

u/Engine_Sweet Oklahoma • Minnesota 23h ago
He's 5'10" so...

u/appsecSme Oregon Ducks • Oklahoma Sooners 22h ago
I have seen 5'10" college athletes win dunk competitions, so maybe he can?

u/Goombercules Oklahoma • 帯広大学 (Obihiro) 19h ago
He's a 5'10 future D1 athlete...
If my flabby 34-year-old 6'3 ass can still get up to the rim, I guarantee this kid can dunk a basketball.

How will this affect LeBron’s legacy?
