LeBron James will be attending one of the games on his bucket list. Alongside with his teammates they will travel and watch the Ohio-Michigan rivalry. The Cleveland Cavaliers are able to insert it in their tight schedule; they are planning to watch the game before going to the Philadelphia for their game in the afternoon.
According to ABCNews, Cleveland Coach Tyronn Lue said that they were working with it for two weeks and he believes that it is good for the team to give them a break and a game to enjoy in between the NBA season. The Ohio State coach Urban Meyer invited the Cleveland Cavaliers to the game after the Cavaliers played a preseason game at Ohio State last October. The Cavs will take the flight to Columbus on Friday night after their 128-90 win over Dallas Mavericks.
LeBron James is a fan of Ohio State ever since. He is always on the sideline watching at Ohio Stadium for the games in the past but the game Ohio-Michigan is certainly on his bucket list. This year's rivalry between the No.2 Buckeyes and No. 3 Wolverines will be a championship implication.
In an interview, he said that it will be a great opportunity for them to watch the game between two great colleges, Ohio and Michigan and certainly would love to fly on Columbus. The Cavaliers also watched Cleveland Indians' postseason battles and this game on Columbus will also be a great one.
James also added that opportunities like this do not come around easy, the World Series in their backyard and the Buckeyes had been very successful and the two-three matchups is a perfect timing.
James clearly is rooting for the Ohio, he did provide them with cleats inspired by his signature Nike sneakers to wear against the Michigan. Ohio State is one of the four schools that wears exclusive James apparel and sneakers. Share your thoughts on the bucket list game of Lebron, and who are you rooting for?
