LeBron shared a heartfelt message in October on his oldest son’s 18th birthday.

“How is this kid 18 years old today y’all!!??!! I can’t deal with it. 🥺🥺,” the NBA dad wrote.“I’m so proud of the young man you’ve become kid!”

“Continue to be YOU throughout your journey because it’s simply better that way!” LeBron continued, promising to “be right beside you whenever/however needed!”
