There’s quite anything like two men sitting at the top of their career showing love for each other. And that’s exactly why LeBron James is great in more than just one way.
Recently, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar was all love for Jamie Foxx as he received the Ultimate Icon award at the 2025 BET Awards.
LeBron took to social media to share just how much Foxx’s journey and legacy in entertainment mean to him.
“@iamjamiefoxx BET “ULTIMATE ICON”!! Love my brother and CONGRATULATIONS!!!!” James tweeted.

He bravely mentioned how he watched the “in memoriam” segment of the show and wondered if he might be included.

LeBron James Share A Special Bond With Jamie Foxx
LeBron James has indeed had a decorated career in the NBA and currently stands as one of the very best active basketball players.
With four championships and four Finals MVP awards to his name, he is frequently discussed in the context of being the GOAT in basketball.
Jamie Foxx is one of the prominent figures who proclaims James as the GOAT.
A couple of years ago, the American actor lauded LeBron in the most hyped discussion.
“He (LeBron) is No.1… Where is the camera? He is No. 1 … Stop all the hype. He drinks GOAT milk and eats GOAT cheese. He is No. 1, I’ve had it with all of y’all,” Foxx said.
However, this was not the only time the actor sided with the NBA star. Earlier this year, he lashed out at critics for blaming LeBron for everything wrong.
