“Just my favorite athlete,” the Giants rookie said of the Cleveland Cavaliers superstar. “Just to be able to meet him, to talk to him, share some words with him, it was pretty great.”

Beckham said James’ marketing people reached out to him within the past week to set up the meeting. James was one of many high-profile athletes who had a strong reaction on Twitter to Beckham’s dazzling catch in Week 12, and he said he was eager to get a chance to talk with him. James posted this photo of the two on his Instagram page

I think more than anything it’s just about how he approaches being a professional on and off the field, and I think everything else will take care of itself. The talent is there, we all see that, but I think he’s a great kid. That’s just my first impression.”
