Lebron James
Wes Dawson
Period 1 Lebron James is one of the best players to go into the NBA in our history. He went straight from high school basketball to playing in the big league, no college basketball time at all for Lebron. He is an exciting player to watch especially alongside with Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. The Heat have been dominating in the NBA for over 3 years now and James has been a big part in that. His role is to play his game and he dominates the court almost every game he plays. Averaging around 25 points per game in a season, Lebron lead his team in Cleveland when he was playing there and now he leads the Miami Heat and he is on a very good franchise team. St. Mary’s High School is where James went to high school and played basketball. Lebron was born on December 30, 1984. Born and raised in Akron, Ohio, and his nationality is American. He is a competitor for the United States Men’s Basketball team, and has won many medals with them over the past decade. This one of a kind athlete weighs in at 250lb and has a height at 6 feet 8 inches. Lebron played high school football and was an All-American wide receiver, but he picked basketball over football always, who knows why? But it’s looking like he has made a good choice so far in his career. He has won back to back championships before in his career with the Heat. Many more awards like MVP, etc. were always apart of his life in the NBA. With all the fame and glory Lebron James has he still knows how to humble himself and that’s what I admire the most about him. He has a family and is committed to giving them great lives and he has to work hard everyday to do his job
