LeBron James is the NBA’s first and only active player to reach billionaire status. The Chosen One has four championship rings, has reached the finals 10 times, and brings with him a history of giving back to the community, both philanthropically and with the increased economic activity for his team’s city. While he can call the Philadelphia 76ers his next home court, his next home is still up in the air—literally.
James is reportedly toying with living in New York while playing for the Sixers, commuting to games and practices by helicopter. Several basketball insiders posted on X this weekend that James could commute by chopper, and noted NBA insider Shams Charania said the option to live in New York while commuting to Sixers practices and games by helicopter added to Philadelphia’s appeal. James has not disclosed where he’ll actually live.
