LeBron James, a name synonymous with basketball brilliance, is widely considered to be one of the best players in NBA history. However, during his high school time, James was not a basketball prodigy. Rather, he was a football phenomenon who was recruited by elite football programs. While many wonder about LeBron’s prospective NFL career, a Miami Dolphins cornerback recently gave his opinion on this subject.

During an open talk on “Thursday Night Football,” James and the cornerback had a discussion. There he proved the basketball coach Doc Rivers’s claims about James’ football prowess inaccurate.
