Twitter Reacts to LeBron James Wishing Lonzo Ball a Happy Birthday

This past August, Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James generated headlines and buzz when he wished NBA legend and Los Angeles Lakers president of basketball operations Magic Johnson a happy birthday via Twitter.

James wished Los Angeles rookie guard Lonzo Ball a happy birthday Friday morning, leading some to believe it's a hint the 32-year-old could sign with the Lakers via free agency next summer:
