LeBron James lauds Myles Garrett for incredible 60-yard FG block

LeBron James is never shy to shout out another athlete on a good performance, and he did so again on Monday. The LA Lakers superstar took to Instagram to show love to one of the top defensive lineman in football.

On most NFL sundays, you can catch James on social media giving out his picks for each week's slate of games. On this occasion, he was in awe of what he saw during the Cleveland Browns vs. Indianopolis Colts game.

The Colts had a chance to win the game with a field goal, but Myles Garrett had other plans. He pulled off an incredible play to block the kick and secure a 39-38 wins to improve the Browns to 4-2 on the year.

LeBron James was one of the many fans left speechless from this game-saving block. Along with tweeting through the action, he re-posted Garrett's post on his Instagram story.


LeBron James makes mulitple posts during Browns vs. Colts game

Of all the games on the NFL slate this week, Browns vs. Colts was one LeBron James was locked in on. The LA Lakers star made multiple posts about the one-point thriller.

Along with tweeting about the big play at the end, James made another post lauding Myles Garrett for his play. After that, he tweeted multiple times about how big of a win it was for the Browns.

The standouts in this win for Cleveland were their running backs. Kareem Hunt and Jerome Ford combined for over 100 yards on the ground and three touchdowns. A successful running game was crucial as Deshaun Watson left the game after attempting just five passes.

James did a lot of posting about the Browns on Sunday, but they are not known for being his favorite team. In the past, the Dallas Cowboys is the main team he roots on in football.

As a native of Akron, it's clear why James was hyped to see the Browns do well. Even though he's moved on from the Cleveland Cavaliers twice in his career, he still has a lot of love for the city. Most of his charity work involves helping improve his hometown and create more opportunities for the people living there.

With the NBA season getting ready to tip off this week, it will be interesting to see if James keeps up with giving out his football picks and reacting to big plays.
