An auditorium of Minnesota high school students was given the mother of all surprises when none other than LeBron James made a special appearance on Friday.

There had been rumors all week that the basketball legend had been working out at Lourdes High School in Rochester, and the Lakers hero confirmed it to screams and cheers of delight.

"HUGE s/o Lourdes High School in Rochester, MN for this week’s long hospitality, prayers, love and support," James posted. 

"I am very thankful for it all. Special thanks to Coach Larson for not only opening up the weight room and gym every day no matter the time but simply because of your generosity & helpfulness!

"To the faculty, teachers, coaches, principle, students you guys absolute ROCK!!!! #GoEagles!"

While details of James' visit to Rochester are not available, it does come after he and his son Bronny made a trip to the Mayo Clinic after the younger James suffered a cardiac arrest during a USC workout.
