"Well, I think he's a great young talent," said James, whose Cavs face the Golden State Warriors Sunday in Game 7 of the finals in Oakland. "I think the way he displays [the talent] on the basketball court, we all notice. I think we all don't know just yet how great of a kid he is and how down to earth he is with the game of basketball and life in general.



"I had an opportunity to spend a lot of time over the last couple years with him and his family. They're just so very appreciative of the opportunity that they've been given as a family. Also, they give everything to their son. They want the best for him.



"And as a mentor to him and big brother to him, I also give him a lot of advice on what to expect when he makes his jump next week, how to handle it. But he also has to figure it out on his own as well, because everybody's path is different. I'm not a GM. I don't get paid by the Sixers, so I'm not going to answer that."
