Atlanta outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. may be the best player in baseball right now, and his all-around excellence is a huge reason why the Braves are currently riding a 10-game winning streak.
Acuña showed off his power and his speed in Saturday's 10-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates, while also paying tribute to another athlete widely considered to be the best in his sport.
After hitting a leadoff home run in the bottom of the first inning Saturday night, Acuña joined teammate Guillermo Heredia with a LeBron James-style chalk-tossing celebration in the Atlanta dugout.
The King noticed and tweeted his approval.
