Be it the show business or the sports business, it is the fans that build stars. An athlete’s brand value more or less depends on two things – his performance on the court and his demeanor off it.

LeBron James, specifically, will very soon reach 100 million followers on Instagram, given his rising popularity. But this fame is not just the result of his following in Cleveland, Miami, or Los Angeles, but his larger-than-life image in the entire world, even outside of the USA. It is also because the Akron Hammer does more for his fans than the paparazzi capture.
