NBA star, LeBron James, just gave a massive shoutout to a high school in Southeast Minnesota!

If you missed the news earlier this week, LeBron James was back in Rochester, Minnesota.  A picture started circulating of him playing basketball at the Lourdes High School gym with teammate Rui Hachimura.

This isn't the first visit to the Med City for LeBron James though.  About a month ago, my co-worker, Dunken, shared the exciting news that LeBron James was spotted in downtown Rochester, Minnesota.  When a guy that tall is spotted walking around Broadway and eating at Terza, he is noticed.

Today, the students at Lourdes High School in Rochester had a moment they will never forget...a surprise from LeBron James himself...and it was all caught on video.

HUGE s/o Lourdes High School in Rochester, MN for this week’s long hospitality, prayers, love and support. I am very thankful for it all. Special thanks to Coach Larson for not only opening up the weight room and gym every day no matter the time but simply because of your generosity & helpfulness! To the faculty, teachers, coaches, principle, students you guys absolute ROCK!!!! #GoEagles P.S. As you can see I surprised the students at the end of the week in the auditorium right after my workouts! - KingJames on Instagram

 

After the video was posted on Instagram, a few of the parents chimed in on LeBron James' Instagram as well...
