Anyone who knows Twitch streamer Tylil James knows he’s obsessed with LeBron James. So much so, Tylil refers to himself as LeBron and his wife Savannah’s “firstborn son,” due to him and the NBA legend sharing the same last name. So when LeBron reposted a clip of Tylil on his Instagram story earlier this week, it was guaranteed to spark a major reaction.
Tylil James’ Heartfelt Reaction to LeBron James’ Instagram Story
Last week, Tylil, a participant at Kai Cenat’s Streamer University at the University of Akron (LeBron’s hometown), visited the LeBron James Museum. The museum’s Instagram shared highlights, including a touching moment where Tylil hugged LeBron’s high school jersey on the museum floor.
But things went to another level when LeBron reposted the museum’s post on his own Instagram Story, adding a series of laughing emojis and prayer hands. The caption read: “🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙏🏽.”
In a Twitch stream the next day, Tylil detailed his initial reaction to the post. He shared that he forced himself back to sleep when he first saw the image, because he thought he was dreaming. Tylil then analyzed LeBron’s caption, saying, “I made LeBron laugh 6 times, and he’s praying to meet me.”

Tylil’s Emotional Outburst Following Lakers’ Playoff Elimination
This isn’t the first time Tylil has gone viral for his LeBron-related antics. Earlier this month, Tylil had another emotional moment after the Los Angeles Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs by the Minnesota Timberwolves.
On stream, Tylil was surrounded by LeBron jerseys and wearing a backwards Lakers jersey and a ski mask when he witnessed the heartbreaking loss. As the game progressed, Tylil’s emotions heightened.
When the Lakers were finally eliminated, he threw his chair across the room, breaking its wheels. He also grabbed a framed LeBron jersey from his wall and slammed it. His frustration reached new heights as he slammed his desk and threw his body around the room in disbelief.
