One thing about NBA players is they know how to appreciate fellow athletes from different sports. During the recently concluded MLB World Series, a lot of them were following the results of the games.
The Chicago Cubs beat the Cleveland Indians in Game 7 on Wednesday night to win their first championship in 108 years. It was truly a historic night for the city and millions of viewers tuned in.
Fans from all over the world, as well as NBA players like LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and James Harden, among others, took to Twitter and gave their reactions to the amazing series.

And of course, there were Draymond Green's salty tweet and Luke Walton's hilarious response.
The players may have been rooting for a certain team to win, but regardless if their bet won or not, it has been one of the most exciting series' in MLB history – fans, including the NBA community, were kept on the edge of their seats all throughout Game 7.
