LeBron James wipes away tears during LA Lakers defeat at Cleveland Cavaliers

NBA legend LeBron James was brought to tears by a tribute video during the Los Angeles Lakers’ defeat at the Cleveland Cavaliers.

James, 41, returned to his home state and former team for possibly the last time on Wednesday as speculation continues over whether he will retire at the end of the season.

He won the NBA title with the Cavaliers in 2016 after returning for a second stint.

During the break after the first quarter at Rocket Arena, the Cavaliers showed highlights of James’ performance in game five of the 2007 Eastern Conference finals, when he scored 48 points to seal a double overtime victory.

James started watching the video before pulling his vest over his face then wiping his eyes with a tissue.

“I’m just trying to take everything in, not take the moments for granted,” he said.
