LeBron James has become one of the best NBA players of all time, thanks to his talents. The King has been simply incredible during his 20-year career, setting and breaking records with ease while the rest of the competition struggles to stop him.
A lot of people became big admirers of him due to his quality on the court, but for someone, LeBron is the best of all, thanks to a big gesture he made several years ago.
Rapper T.I. recently shared the story of when LeBron, amid a playoff run, went to Atlanta to visit Tip’s grandma.

“I’ma always be a LeBron James fan and I’ll tell you why,” T.I. began on Broken Play. “The last Mother’s Day my grandmama was alive, LeBron came to my grandmama house and sat on my grandmama porch, right on Bankhead. [He] ate barbecue and kicked it with me, my grandmama and all my cousins.

“Right before they kicked the Hawks’ ass and went on to the Goddamn Eastern Conference Finals, and that’s the year that she died. She always, ‘Where that tall fella?!’ Yeah, LeBron came to Bankhead. He wasn’t a billionaire at the time, but he left that billionaire residue. So I’ma always be a LeBron fan.”
This series he’s talking about happened in 2009 when the Cleveland Cavaliers swept the Atlanta Hawks and advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals, where Dwight Howard and his Orlando Magic would be waiting for them.
LeBron couldn’t get past the Magic, that would lose to the Los Angeles Lakers in the Finals, but he created plenty of good memories that year. T.I. will always be grateful to the King, and it’s easy to see why.
