LeBron James wore a 'Money Manziel' shirt while talking with reporters

News flash: LeBron James likes Johnny Manziel.

With Manziel set to start Sunday's game for the Browns, LeBron busted out his 'Money Manziel' shirt when he addressed the media in the locker room after Tuesday's win over the Raptors.

"You know I know timing," James said.

FARRAR: Browns finally turn to Johnny Manziel, who has potential to thrive early​

As he left the locker room, James flashed Manziel's famous money sign, according to FOX Sports Ohio. 

Non-coincidentally, Manziel was named as the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday, supplanting incumbent Brian Hoyer despite a 7-6 team record. James was quoted as saying, "you know I know timing" with regard to his pal claiming the QB1 position.

Manziel hasn't done much in the NFL, but he already has a high-profile (and impactful) supporter in his NFL city.
