The guy got the best selfie of the Olympics?

Security tried to stop some fans from getting autographs, but LeBron James stopped and showed love to the fans in Lille. He also took a fan’s phone to snap a selfie.

James on France: “I wasn’t very impressed with their last game. I didn’t think they were ready for the physicality of Germany. Other than that, they were playing some good ball.” pic.twitter.com/WgH8CjnNXW – 1:06 PM

To be in the building 15 or 20 years ago to see LeBron in the open court — with that speed and power and out-of-nowhere extra burst — was just awe-inspiring.

And you know what?

It still is. – 12:31 PM

Loved how Booker wanted to set himself up to throw a lob to LeBron. Maybe next time! – 12:22 PM

The LeBron behind-the-back pinpoint pass with his right to Embiid cutting on the baseline was insane, but him destroying PR’s coverage on the Booker screen with a lefty bounce pass leading Book to the paint was also sensational. Off hand, in front of the moving target. Precise. – 12:08 PM

28-10 run after LeBron checked back in. Big-time playmaking close to the half from him. – 12:04 PM

Just a couple of selfless 39-year-old dudes with gray in our beards, LeBron and me. – 12:01 PM

From the “the little things matter” category: LeBron pulling Curry up off the floor essentially in stride got Steph back into the play instead of giving PR a 5-on-4. USA gets the stop. – 12:00 PM

Insane pass from LeBron James to Joel Embiid.

Steph off the glass to LeBron for a dunk…crisis warned here. – 11:58 AM
