LeBron James is one of the most influential athletes in the sports world. Apart from having an incredible basketball IQ on the hardwood, King James also has a knack for making great business decisions off the floor. The LA Lakers superstar showed his business prowess again as he announced his new collaboration with the $18.57 billion company DraftKings.

Upon hearing about LeBron’s partnership with the company, famous comedian and actor Kevin Hart was thrilled and took to social media to shower him with love.
