NBA'S LEBRON JAMES MEMORIES OF MARIAH
Michael? Nope. Magic? Not quite. Mariah? Definitely.
Though Michael Jordan was his idol and Magic Johnson is the player he is often compared to, neither made the biggest All-Star impression on LeBron James.
"My favorite All-Star memory was seeing Mariah Carey in the Michael Jordan jersey dress," James said Saturday. "Was that Atlanta? Yeah, that's my favorite memory of All-Star weekend. Whew!"
James was a high school senior in Akron, Ohio in 2003 when that performance took place. During a tribute to Jordan, who was playing in his final All-Star game, Carey sang while wearing tight-fitting dresses patterned after Jordan's Chicago and Washington jerseys.
