LeBron James is widely regarded as one of the best basketball players today. He has an incredible combination of skills, strength, leaping ability and height that make him one of the best athletes in the world.

LeBron James was born in Akron, Ohio on December 30th, 1984. He grew up in Akron where he had a difficult childhood. His father was an ex-con(出獄的囚犯) who wasn’t there when he grew up. His family was poor and had a hard time. Fortunately his basketball coach，F(xiàn)rankie Walker，received him and let him stay with his family where he could focus on school and basketball.

LeBron James went to high school at St. Vincent-St Mary High School in Akron. He led his basketball team to three state titles and was named “Mr. Basketball” into Ohio for three years. He decided not to go to college and went straight to the NBA where he was the number 1 pick in the draft(選秀).

LeBron James was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers where he played his first seven seasons.

In 2010, LeBron James became a free agent. This meant he could play for any team he wanted. Which team he would choose was big news.
