LeBron invites Ben Simmons to celebrate 21st birthday with spiked Shirley Temple
Today is Ben Simmons' 21st birthday, and LeBron James wants to celebrate accordingly.
The Cleveland Cavaliers superstar, who has expressed his admiration for Simmons in the past, took to Twitter on Thursday to invite his "lil bro" out to drink some Shirley Temples "with a twist" now that he's reached the legal drinking age in the U.S.

Simmons' Philadelphia 76ers teammate Joel Embiid is notorious for indulging in (virgin) Shirley Temples.
James, meanwhile, is known to enjoy adult beverages. Though wine is the 32-year-old's drink of choice, he did pretend to sip some beer during a playoff game this past postseason.
