LeBron James has increased his equity in Fenway Sports Group, hinting at an NBA team purchase
Apart from being a Hall of Fame-worthy basketball player, LeBron James is also a successful businessman. Just last year, The King earned a mouth-watering $126 million. But, what is LeBron doing with all that money?
If reports are to be believed, the NBA’s all-time leading scorer is making a huge move. LeBron has just signed a lifetime marketing deal with Fenway Sports Group. A deal that increases his equity in FSG significantly.
Known for their ownership in sports teams like the Boston Red Sox, Liverpool FC, and the Pittsburgh Penguins, many believe this move suggests a possible future investment in a new NBA team. And, best of all, LeBron could be spearheading the ownership group.

Vegas is a big city, and LeBron is a big player. One thing is for certain, Sin City will most definitely welcome an NBA team, especially if King James is ruling.
