On the court, LeBron James has won four MVPs and two NBA championships and has reached six consecutive NBA Finals — and he is still only 31 years old.
Off the court, he's equally relentless. Earlier this season, James signed a lifetime endorsement deal with Nike worth more than $1 billion — a move that was so big it is more like the merger of two corporations — becoming the first athlete in the company's 44-year history to do so.
As a result of his unwavering successes on and off the court, James has amassed amazing cars and houses and still has time for his surprisingly normal family. King James is also well on his way toward his goal of becoming a billion-dollar athlete.
