Frances Tiafoe channels iconic LeBron James celebrations after wins at Australian Open

Unseeded American Frances Tiafoe is making a name for himself down under, advancing to the quarterfinals at this year's Australian Open. The 21 year old has captivated the sports world, not just with a series of upsets that has seen him knock off 5-seed Kevin Anderson and 20-seed Grigor Dimitrov, but with his post-match celebrations that have paid homage to Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James.

After his second round victory over Anderson, Tiafoe mimicked the "too strong" bicep slap James has been known to perform after scoring a basket through contact.
