The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Phoenix Suns 116-112 Sunday night without the help of their star offseason acquisition LeBron James who is still out with a groin injury.
That doesn’t mean James doesn’t still have amazing court awareness as the King spotted and then pointed out a group of fans up in the nosebleeds who were trying to get his attention.

Pretty cool, right? I mean, talk about your all time sports memories as a fan.
But wait… there’s more.
Not only did LeBron acknowledge these fans, he took it a step further and posted the video of it to his 46.6 million follower Instagram account.
“Court Vision OD!! I see y’all over there! 👀 Appreciate the love from up top and Salute y’all. Go #LakerShow #TeamLeBron 🙏🏾👑‼️‼️‼️” James wrote in the caption to the video.
As of right now, the video’s gotten 4.6 million views. I’d say these guys had themselves a pretty good night, and in turn, became the envy of NBA fans everywhere.
Lebron got arena vision

This is pretty much my life goal. My wife can never say “They can’t hear you when you yell from way up here” again…

Man, I wish we would have had social media when the GOAT, Michael Jordan, was playing. Think he would have responded to these fans like this back in the day? Yeah, probably not.
