CLEVELAND - Two athletes have responded to a fan that ran onto the court at Wednesday night’s Cavs/Heat game.

James Blair, 21, was arrested and charged with criminal trespassing after storming the court wearing a “We miss you, come back 2014” shirt in a nod to LeBron James.

The Heat superstar answered his superfan via Twitter and called him "brave."

Blair, whose handle is @ jamesblair06 , tweeted @King James: "appreciate you showing love when I came on floor last night follow back homie!!!! # TeamLeBron "

LeBron responded Thursday night quoting the tweet and then writing “(Yesir! Brave guy)”

Cleveland Browns lineman James Pinkston has also corresponded with Blair.
