Romeo Travis' 32 points and 14 rebounds in the Magnolia Hotshots' 113-95 rout of Columbian Dyip drew raves from Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James Wednesday night.
James congratulated Travis on Twitter.

"Way to work my brother!!!," James wrote, retweeting ESPN5's post to his 41.5 million followers.
Travis, Magnolia's PBA Governors' Cup import, and James were high school teammates at St. Vincent-St. Mary in Akron, Ohio.
Travis, along with James, Dru Joyce III, Sian Cotton, and Willie McGee actually formed St. Vincent-St. Mary's "Fab Five", helping the school win the 2003 national championship.
The left-handed Travis, known for his mid-range jumpers, added seven assists in the win over the Dyip.
