After the fan realizes the basketball player is not going to oblige the hand gesture, she takes matters into her own "hands" and does an awkward hand holding shake, to which James still stands there and just grins.

Yahoo calls the new awkward nonchalant shake "The Eel" and pokes fun at him saying it is his new gimmick.

The game was called "The Rudy Gay All-Star Gam," and was put together by Rudy Gay of the Memphis Grizzlies. The game was played to raise money for the Flight 22 Foundation.

James had 43 points.

The basketball star has been busy during the lockout playing basketball games of all kinds everywhere. Yesterday it was reported James filled in for a friend’s basketball team at a Cleveland JJC.

Early last month, James showed up to his former high school to play football with some of the students.

James was a star football player in high school and he still had the skills to be there, according to players on the field.

Kevin Besser, the school’s quarterback, told Fox8.com: “He caught everything, he didn’t drop a pass. I probably threw six or seven passes his way and [he] went up and got everything.”

Upon finishing his football practice, James tweeted: “Just got done practicing with the St. V Varsity football team, full pads and all…Felt great being back on the field. Should I?”
