          The 2024 NBA playoffs are well underway, and while the players are shining on the court, celebrities and other notable figures are filling the front row seats.

          During Game 4 of the Boston Celtics-Cleveland Cavaliers series in the Eastern Conference, a familiar player sat courtside -- LeBron James. The Los Angeles Lakers forward attended the game with his wife, Savannah, and agent Rich Paul.

          The Cavaliers selected the Akron, Ohio, native with the No. 1 pick in 2003. He spent seven seasons in Cleveland, winning two MVP awards, before leaving for the Miami Heat in 2010. James returned in 2014 and won a championship with the franchise in 2016, marking Cleveland's first major championship since 1964.

          The Cavaliers' victory over the Orlando Magic in the first round marked their first series win without James on the roster since 1993.

          The four-time NBA champion enjoyed the atmosphere of the second round at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.
