During last night's Cavs/Celtics game, LeBron James showed some love to 16-year-old Special Olympian Aaron Miller and blessed him with his game-worn sneakers.
James took a few seconds at the end of a timeout to acknowledge Miller, who was born with severe brain damage, by running over and patting him on the shoulder before giving him a thumbs up. As shown in the clip above, Miller was thrilled at the moment of recognition.
Cleveland.com reports that James even gave Miller the sneakers off his feet at the end of the game. Fittingly, Miller already had on a pair of LeBrons: the Flyease Soldier 8 designed specifically for disabled athletes.
James noticed Miller in the crowd after the latter was honored by the Celtics during a timeout.
"I looked up at the Jumbotron and I seen what he's been through and where he is now," James said. "I think the doctor said he would never walk again, talk again, or something like that. I looked up there and I just, right from there. This game is so much more than just basketball."
