Schwarzenegger and James have had each other’s back for a long time now. In 2018, when LeBron was about to participate in the NBA all-star game, he announced that all the profit from this would go to Arnold’s non-profit organization. Founded in 2002, Arnold’s organization helps kids with low-income backgrounds to study.

During a game against Portland Trail Blazers, James needed to score 39 points, and he finished with 44. This made the Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron move to the fifth position on the NBA’s scoring list. He left the Hall of Famer Wilt Chamberlain behind him.
