British royals holding court in Brooklyn
What do you get when a King meets a Prince? An epic photo of LeBron ‘King’ James giving Prince William and Kate a jersey for their son, George after the Cavaliers beat the Nets earlier this week.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also met Brooklyn royalty, Beyonce and Jay-Z, sending Twitter into mania.

My lil guy Prince George was excited about our win last night as well so he wanted to run around this… http://t.co/JtyytOHOyt

Champions League cheer
There were many happy faces on Twitter after Tuesday night’s Champions League matches, particularly Aaron Ramsey, who scored a stunner of a goal against Galatasaray to help Arsenal secure a 4-1 victory.
Really hard match but in the end we are in 1/8. Thank you so much #JStadium! #ForzaJuve #UCL #FinoAllaFine pic.twitter.com/iOmlbdjP82

Lotus’ Romain Grosjean sets things straight with Jenson Button, Amir Khan prepares for his fight by shopping (of course), while swimmer Chad le Clos’ incredible World Championships in Doha are only starting to sink in.
I’ve never said : time for @JensonButton to leave F1, he deserves his place! Just hard for young drivers to get a seat, only 20 available
