LeBron was fanboying Justin Timberlake so hard after seeing his kicks on stage

LeBron James is one of the coolest cucumbers in the… fridge.

Okay, whatever, LeBron is a cool guy and you don’t see him letting his excitement get the best of him very often – not even when he’s winning a championship. Sure, he’s an emotional guy and he’s not afraid to show a little this-and-that, but you don’t usually see him getting giddy-excited like you’d expect to see a child get meeting their favourite cartoon character (we said whatever…).

Apparently Justin Timberlake touches that nerve in King James. When LeBron saw that the 2018 Super Bowl halftime performer was wearing his kicks on stage during his show, he had a little fanboy moment.

It's funny seeing a celebrity get so excited about a celebrity, particularly when the excitable celebrity is one that is so highly sought after at the time.

We’re sure that JT respects LeBron just about as much, although we’re still waiting on the Instagram post.
