Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James liked what he saw from Lamar Jackson on Saturday as the Baltimore Ravens beat the Houston Texans 34-10 in the divisional round of the NFL Playoffs.
James, who often takes to social media to talk football, had high praise for Jackson after he led the Ravens to the AFC Championship.
“Man I LOVE Lamar Jackson!!!!!” James posted on X.
Jackson had an outstanding game against the Texans on Saturday. He threw for 152 yards and a pair of touchdowns on an efficient 16-of-22 passing while also picking up 100 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
The Ravens had a slow start to the game, heading into halftime tied at 10. The second half was all Baltimore as Jackson and the Ravens scored 24 unanswered points to pick up a comfortable win.
Now, the Ravens are heading to the AFC Championship for the first time since 2012 when they beat the San Francisco 49ers and won the Super Bowl. Next week’s game will be Jackson’s first AFC Championship appearance, and he’ll be looking for another big game like the one on Saturday that caught James’ attention.
Baltimore will take on the winner of Sunday night’s matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills.
