LeBron – by Jeff Benedict

Posted on 04/27/2023 by Mark

When I saw this book about LeBron James, I was immediately intrigued. I did have to stop reading it a few times as I had other books to read, but when I finally finished it, I was glad I read it and learned a lot more about him than I knew previously.

It was he and his mom throughout out his childhood trying to survive. When he started playing high school basketball, he was fortunate enough to play with some of his closest friends and had wonderful coaches helping him succeed.

I didn’t realize that LeBron has a very small circle of business minded folks he trusts, and he has been with them for a while.

I was a bit worried, that it would drag on and the author would detail every game he played, but that didn’t happen. Only a few games were highlighted, as well as playoff games.

I will say, he is a class act both on and off the court and is a great example of a family man. You won’t see him doing anything stupid like other athletes do.

If I was a General Manager of an NBA team, and had to pick any current player, my first choice would be LeBron James. Even though I haven’t followed the NBA or the San Antonio Spurs since 2016, I remember preaching to the world that when was a free agent and had he signed with the Spurs, I would’ve happily accepted him.
