Def Jam’s 2 Chainz made sure to get some personal time with the thing both Golden State Warriors’ Steph Curry and Cleveland Cavaliers’ LeBron James are chasing.
This week, Deuce went to Instagram with pics of himself hugged up with the NBA Finals championship trophy.
Last night, Philadelphia rapper Meek Mill paid his respect to LeBron James for becoming the all-time leading NBA playoffs scoring player.
Back in February, 2 Chainz called King James one of the NBA’s greatest.
Recently, music mogul Jay Z acknowledged James’ unreal on-court and off-court talent.
“Titles in Miami, then he returned to his hometown to lead his Cleveland Cavaliers to their first championship in franchise history. That was superhuman though. But aside from the fierce competitor and dominating basketball player that is LeBron James, who is LeBron James? The individual. Philanthropist. The man LeBron James is even better than the basketball player is hard to believe. I’ve witnessed his work with Boys & Girls clubs, building basketball courts in less fortunate areas like where we grew up in like Brooklyn here, reaching back and giving out opportunities – he’s a dedicated family man who married his childhood sweetheart, Savannah, has three lovely children, the son who honors and worships his mother Gloria, the friend who put his ‘posse’ in position, I know. We know where we come from, we do understand where we come from and the only difference between us and someone who has their MBA – is opportunity. … You messed around and got a triple-double in real life. I wrote that joke myself. He is a true friend, my friend, I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this award, ladies and gentlemen, please rise, the Sportsperson of the Year, King James.”
