Without a doubt, Lebron James is one of basketball’s living legends. Now, similarly to Michael Jordan, he wants to own an NBA team!
Jordan has currently owned the Charlotte Hornets since 2010, so it’s no surprise when incredible athletes strive to make this move. In a recent interview, LBJ stated that he would like to own a team one day, and restated this same mentality at this past weekend’s NBA All-Star game.
“I was asked a question and I answered it how I felt at that point in time,” James said. “I believe if I wanted to, I could own a team or be part of a basketball team. I know I got so much knowledge of the game that I don’t want to, once I stop playing, I just [do not] want to get away from the game.”
Lebron, we appreciate your hustle, but before we go on owning other teams, let’s stay focused on getting our home team, the Lakers, to the play-offs!
