HoopsVibe’s Very Quick Call: This, as they say, is not a good look.
Clearly, LeBron James got a little carried away while playing what was supposed to be a friendly game of bump with children at a basketball camp.
Rather than shoot a jumper, James, of course, opts to dunk the ball and accidentally knocks a pre-teen to the ground.
Give the little guy credit: he took a body check from a 6-8, 280-pound man-child and got up smiling. Unlike Derek Fisher or Manu Ginobili, there was no flopping or exaggerating the blow.
Give the big guy credit, too: James apologized and gave the camper a free pair of sneakers. Thankfully, there was no attempt by Nike to hide the video.
Perhaps James has grown a bit, after all.
