Everybody wanted a piece of LeBron James' homecoming last night in Cleveland. Check out the NBA's "Coming Home" festivities before the Cavs game last night inside, and the celebs who kicked it courtside...
There was lots of hype last night surrounding Bron's return to the Cavs. He and his team lost their home opener, but the city was on fire with performances and celebs to celebrate the homecoming of Ohio's favorite son.
Kevin Hart jetted to Cleveland to do some pre-game hosting duties with Charles Barkley and co. They introduced the performing acts, Imagine Dragons and the homie Kendrick Lamar:
Nice.
Kevin cuddled up courtside with fiancee Eniko. But first:
He flew in on a private jet and parked next to Cavs part-owner Usher. Peep his commentary:
Ha!!
Back at the game:
Usher, his protege Justin Bieber, and Michael Strahan chopped it up courtside.
And Ursh gave Bron a big 'Welcome Home' hug.
And before the Cavs took the floor against the NY Knicks, Usher belted out the National Anthem:
Super Knicks fan Spike Lee was on the sidelines cheering on his team in the hostile environment:
Ha. Gotta love it. The Knicks ended up pulling it out 95-90. Tonight, the Cavs travel to Chicago to battle it out with Derrick Rose and The Bulls.
