LeBron James was born in Akron, Ohio, in nineteen eighty-four. He attended Saint Vincent-Saint Mary High School. He led his high school basketball team to three state championships. He was named Ohio’s “Mr. Basketball” three times.
In LeBron’s junior year, Sports Illustrated magazine put his picture on its cover. The magazine called him “The Chosen One.” Soon LeBron James became a household name. Famous people and star athletes came to see him play and many of his high school basketball games were televised.
After high school, the Cleveland Cavaliers chose LeBron James with the first pick in the two thousand three National Basketball Association draft. He quickly developed into one of the best players in the NBA. He scored the most points of any player during the two thousand seven to two thousand eight seasons.“King James” also led the Cavs to five post-season appearances. He made it as far as the basketball championship series in two thousand seven. But LeBron James has never won an NBA championship ring.
On July first, LeBron James’ contract with Cleveland expired. He became a free agent. For months, sports fans had tried to predict where the star would choose to play. He met with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Chicago Bulls, New Jersey Nets, Los Angeles Clippers, New York Knicks and the Miami Heat.
