There are certain perks to having your old high school name their gymnasium after you. For example, if you find yourself looking to get up some shots on a summer afternoon, the gym is all yours, and you can spend all day and night using it without having to wait to get on the court.

Granted, LeBron James could probably get access to just about any gym he wanted. But last summer, he spent some time inside of the LeBron James Arena at his alma mater St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio getting shots up with his close friends Dru Joyce III and Romeo Travis. Travis—who currently plays overseas and is part of a new video series called Deployed—brought a camera crew along to document the shooting session. And while the focus of the resulting video isn't on LeBron, it's hard not to watch him as he runs through drills and prepares for the 2014-15 NBA season.

Check out the clip, which is called "Shootin' the Sh*t," above to see LeBron & Co. in action. It's kind of crazy to see them shooting around inside of their old stomping grounds more than a decade after all three suited up for SVSM.
