LeBron James' title aspirations have $900 of Mountain Dew at stake between Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless

Betting is commonplace in sports. However, Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe put up a bizarre one revolving around LeBron James!

Last season was one to forget for the Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron James. It was a truly horrendous year, as they failed to make the postseason.

The lackluster performances had many questioning what the Lakers’ next move would be. Many even believed the team could lose King James, as he was only under contract for one more season.

Fortunately, those rumors were put to rest, as James signed a massive two-year $97 million extension to stay suited up in the purple and gold!
