St. Louis speller Gokul Venkatachalam is rolling through the National Spelling Bee, nailing words like "aggrandizement" and "smellfungus."

But he caught our attention not for the words he's spelling, but because he might be the biggest LeBron James fan in Spelling Bee history. Gokul decided to pay homage to James by using glitter to imitate the Miami Heat star's pregame chalk toss. Gokul also rocked a pair of LeBron X sneakers during Thursday afternoon's semifinals.

The 12-year-old, who is making his second appearance in the semifinals, has only had one slip-up so far. He "lost his Miami Heat cap on a bus" and replaced it with a blue Knicks cap because "it best matched his blue T-shirt."

If this kid wins, James better get Gokul to the Heat's next home playoff game and hope he can spell "V-I-C-T-O-R-Y."
