NBA: LeBron James wants his own franchise in Vegas

Los Angeles Lakers starLeBron James wants to own a new NBA franchise in Las Vegas.

The 37-year-old athlete made this revelation on The Shop.

“I want a team in Vegas,” the star confided.

LeBron James, who was recently certified a billionaire by Forbes magazine, will have to wait to make his dream come true, however, as the NBA does not intend to increase its current 30-team roster at this time.

The veteran of 19 seasons in the NBA is ranked as the 2nd highest paid athlete in the world in 2022. Only Lionel Messi earns more money than the 2m06 giant, who pocketed $121.2 million this past year.
