LeBron James [3] is the king on the basketball court, but it looks like someone else calls the shots at home: his adorable daughter, Zhuri. For the first time ever, the Cleveland Cavaliers all-star wore a microphone during the game, and while some players were heard speaking some ridiculous team huddle statements [4] while mic'd up, LeBron was caught spending his team's time out solely on a mission to get his 3-year-old daughter [5] some candy, and for that he deserves the Most Valuable Dad award (he's already a four-time NBA MVP).

It took asking a few different people if they had candy, but he hit the jackpot with a security guard who happily passed his treats to Zhuri. Because if LeBron James asks you for your candy, you hand it over like you would a cop asking for your license and registration. Watch the adorable video above and check out some reactions on Twitter [6] that prove even though he's an incredibly talented basketball player, fatherhood comes first, which means CANDY!!!

Man will do anything for his daughter. 100%.
