Emanuel Duncan is a high school senior who attends Lawrence Central High in Indianapolis. He has a terminal illness called Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and he has no idea how long he has left. When that's your reality it's good to live it up each day. He's already been to Bristol, Conn. through the Make-a-Wish foundation, chatted up Stephen A., presumably on purpose, and intentionally skipped talking to Skip Bayless because (in his words) “I don’t like Skip Bayless." At this point pretty much everything on his bucket list has a line through it. Here's what's left. 1.) Meet LeBron James That's it. Duncan explained his wish to Indy Star columnist Gregg Doyel: “My bucket list is to meet LeBron. That’s the one thing I want to do. Meet LeBron James. That’s my role model.
