Stop me if you’ve heard this one before, folks, but LeBron James still has it.
The four-time NBA Finals MVP turned 38 years old on Friday. He led he Lakers to a victory, 130-121, over the Hawks. It was his best game of the season and he finished with 47 points, 10 rebounds, 9 assists, and 1 block.
Arguably most impressive, given his age, is that James had three dunks as well. They were all pretty awesome to watch, but one late in the third quarter was especially memorable.
It caught the attention of his wife, Savannah, and his mother, Gloria (who wrote a heartfelt tribute to her son on Instagram earlier in the day). They were sitting together courtside and were equally impressed:

Savannah James and Gloria James have both watched LeBron play at the highest levels for an astonishingly long time, yet he continues to find new ways to impress them.
Considering how well LeBron played during this game, though, some fans theorized the Lakers would play much better if his wife and mother attended every game.
Petition to get Savannah and Gloria James court-side to every Lakers game
