Windhorst, LeBron joined at hip


Brian Windhorst’s symbionic relationship with NBA superstar LeBron James gets a lot of attention in the spring 2012 Kent State Jargon magazine article about Brian, who was a speaker during KSU’s ethics workshop.

Brian covered LeBron’s St. Vincent-St. Mary High School basketball career in Akron as a BJ sportswriter, after years as a sports clerk at the Beacon; then LeBron’s Cleveland Cavaliers tenure, as the BJ and later Plain Dealer beat writer for the Cavs; and then jumped to ESPN.com to concentrate on LeBron’s new team when King James made The Decision to switch his talents to the Miami Heat in his quest for an NBA championship ring, which LeBron finally got this year.

Before Brian was trained by the BJ Sports Department, he was “trained” by his mother, who coached several successful high school softball teams. Brian was the scorekeeper, statistician and media contact for Mom.

Here’s the Kent State Jargon article on Brian:
