LeBron James: Christmas in June

Apple Watches   (Public Domain)
Although this King James has not written a Bible, he certainly has the “love one another” part in progress.

When LeBron hands out Apples, they’re more for his pupils than for his teachers.  While serving as an unofficial team coach, James recently gifted each one of his fellow Cavaliers with these popular watches.

Teammate J. R. Smith recently reported that “every day it’s something different… sneakers, Beats…, hoodies, book bags.”  Smith then added that he “can’t wait to come back next year.”

Behind all these material gifts (which NBA players can certainly afford to buy for themselves) stands the one gift that humans seem to prize above all others:  the gift of appreciation.

Whether on the court, or holding court, LeBron is a master at sharing knowledge, wisdom and gratitude with his basketball family.

Dave Daniels of RantSports.com points out that there is one more gift that LeBron has fully shared with them:  “the gift of his presence.”
