LeBron James took some time Thursday to remember Ebony Nettles-Bey, who passed away from cancer on Wednesday.
The Cleveland Cavaliers star met the teenager, who was a high school girls basketball player from Wisconsin, when he was a member of the Miami Heat playing the Milwaukee Bucks in March 2014.
James also honored Nettles-Bey with "R.I.P Ebony" on his shoes during Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors.
