LeBron James got emotional while watching what is perhaps the saddest moment in the whole Fresh Prince of Bel-Air series.
James posted a four-part Instagram of Fresh Prince star Will Smith's touching reaction just after his dad bails on him when the two are supposed to leave together for a trip. In the scene, Smith opens up about his abandonment issues and vows to be a better person than his absent father.
The scene hits close to home for James, who was raised by a single mom with an absentee father. In a candid interview last year, he thanked his father for inspiring him by never being there for him, since that pushed him to be successful.
