His high school freshman year started with playing for St. Vincent-St. Mary's varsity basketball team. However, James was prodigiously talented in more than just basketball.

He is married to his high school friend, Savannah Brinson, and has a daughter, Zhuri James. Also, LeBron James' sons are Bronny James or LeBron James Jr, and Bryce Maximus James.
<h2>LeBron James NBA career</h2>
His NBA career kick-started when he was picked by his hometown team, Cleveland Cavaliers, as the first overall pick in the 2003 NBA draft. Moreover, by the end of the season, he became the first Cavaliers player to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award, and it took just one more season for him to earn his first NBA all-star call-up.

In the next few years, he rose as one of the best players in basketball. He ended his contract with the Cavaliers in 2010 and was a superstar by then. As a free agent, LeBron was reported to have been contacted by quite a few teams before he finally signed for Miami Heat.

Four years later, he opted out of his Heat contract and moved back to his hometown team, where he became the first player to play five consecutive finals since the 1960s.

Though he played for years for the Cavaliers in his second stint, he opted out of the contract and signed for <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/los-angeles-lakers/">Los Angeles Lakers</a> in 2018. However, as LeBron James' Lakers season was disturbed by injuries in 2018, the 2019-20 NBA season would be a fresh start for him.
