Boy, it really is good having LeBron James back in the state of Ohio, and the Ohio State basketball team would definitely agree with that after their early Xmas gifts.

It’s really no secret that LeBron James is a huge supporter of Ohio State athletics. As a matter of fact, it’s know that if the rule were in place when he was coming out of high school that he had to attend at least one year of college, he would have spent some time as a Buckeye.

Well now that he is back in the state with the Cleveland Cavaliers, he feels like giving back to the program that he would have called home if he had to.

LeBron sent the Ohio State basketball team maybe the best Christmas gift that he could. He sent them pairs of his newest sneaker, the LeBron 12s.



That might be one of the best Christmas gifts that these young men ever received. I know it would definitely be one of the best for me.

Also, and so this doesn’t get overlooked, this is also a pretty big tool on the recruiting trail for Thad Matta and the rest of the coaching staff.
