Eleven Reasons LeBron James is The Biggest Athlete On The Planet
LeBron James is the ultimate athlete, and there are so many reasons to prove that. The NBA star has been making headlines since the very first moment he took the world stage. The last time we read about him was when Drake brought him on stage in Los Angeles. Drake and Travis Scott were performing Sicko Mode, and King James jumped in to join him.
LeBron is richer than Drake and Lionel Messi. Surprised much? According to Celebrity Net Worth, LeBron’s bank balance is at $440 million. Google says his salary is $35.65 million.

Rihanna loves King James, and we even saw a pic of her having the number 23 on her stomach.
In 2005, LeBron got Lil Wayne performing for his 21st birthday. There were his friends, VIPs and his family of course. The tickets ranged from $50 to $300, and the proceeds went to charity.
When it comes to performance, Jay- and Beyoncé performed at his wedding in 2013.
King James is one of the three athletes to ink a lifetime contract deal with Nike alongside Michael Jordan and Cristiano Ronaldo.
