Being one of the most successful players in NBA history, LeBron James has racked up almost $430 million through his career earnings alone. Apart from the money James has made from his NBA salaries, being a smart businessman, he has also generated a lot of revenue from his lucrative business ventures and investments, which have boosted his net worth to $1 billion. Now in a position where he can provide a platform for his peers, LeBron’s $725 million-worth SpringHill Company has already allowed Naomi Osaka to raise $5,000,000 for her own idea. Now, the King is utilizing his resources to help the 2023 NBA Most Valuable Player Joel Embiid.

Osaka’s creation ‘Hana Kuma’ recently announced a $5,000,000 raise, with the Los Angeles Lakers star’s production company being one of the chief investors. After helping the Tennis sensation’s cause, the four-time NBA Champion is set to help Embiid launch a media company called Miniature Géant.
Joel Embiid to partner with LeBron James to launch his own media company
Embiid is set to use Miniature Géant as a platform to narrate stories of people with difficult routes to success. A statement from an official press release read, “Miniature Géant will pursue stories across multi-media channels…with the goal of expanding the aperture to showcase people who have taken nontraditional paths to success buoyed by a sense of determination and belief.”
One of the projects in the pipeline is a documentary on Joel’s inspiring journey to the National Basketball Association. Excited about sharing his improbable rise from the streets of Cameroon, the 7-feet star cannot wait to share his story with the world.
“I came to America when I was 16 years old, just three months after I picked up a basketball… I’ve often said my life is like a movie, and now I am fortunate enough to be in a position to create the stories that I know will resonate with kids around the world and encourage them to dream big,” Embiid said, while talking about the upcoming movie, as per Shadow and Act.
Partnering with LBJ’s $725 million production house, Embiid hopes to make a huge impact with this new venture of his. Have a look at the details in Stefan Bondy’s tweet.
