There’s nothing that we enjoy watching more than one famous person singing "Happy Birthday" to another famous person. Whether it’s Wyclef Jean singing to Young Thug, Chance the Rapper singing to Beyoncé, or President Obama singing to his oldest daughter Malia, the results are almost always memorable. And this Instagram video of LeBron James singing "Happy Birthday" to Kevin Love early Wednesday on Love's 28th birthday is no different.

LeBron isn’t actually with Love on his birthday, so rather than sing to him in person, he decided to do the next best thing. He dug up an old Sports Illustrated cover with Love, then a UCLA star, on the front of it. Then, he proceeded to sing "Happy Birthday" to it while pointing at the photo and showing off his less-than-spectacular voice. And he also stopped singing for a moment to yell “Smile!” at the Sports Illustrated cover before jumping back into the song. It's just the latest example of LeBron soaking up every single ounce of fun this summer.

Remember when everybody thought LeBron hated Love? Yeeeeeeeah, so much for that. They may not be BFFs off the basketball court, but it's clear that there's no bad blood between them.

Check out LeBron singing to his Cavaliers teammate in the clip above. No word on how Love is celebrating his birthday yet, but there's absolutely no way that he's going to be able to top the celebration that he had after the Cavs won the title back in June.
