LeBron James attends Chaminade High School football game to watch nephew play

The Los Angeles Lakers star took time during the first week of the NBA season

After LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers tipped off the 2022-23 NBA regular season on Tuesday, the basketball star capped the week by attending a high school football game in Southern California.

LeBron and Savannah James, his wife, were spotted in the stands at Chaminade College Prep, where their nephew Auston Mims plays. Chaminade (8-0) was putting its perfect season on the line against Sierra Canyon.

LeBron James has made appearances at Sierra Canyon basketball games for the last several years to watch his sons Bronny James, a senior, and Bryce James, now a freshman. 

It's not the first time he's shown up at the West Hills, Calif. high school. His appearance at the school's homecoming game against Notre Dame on Oct. 7 drew significant fan and media attention, as did another last fall. 

Mims is a 6-foot-4 senior lineman who also plays basketball for the Eagles.
