LeBron's six-figure luxury outshines Jokic's Rolex—who's the real king of NBA extravagance?

LeBron James’ Los Angeles Lakers fell short of efforts and skills on the court to Nikola Jokic’s Denver Nuggets in last season’s playoffs. However, King James got the chance to get back on the Serbian star as Team USA went past the Serbian squad two times during their Paris Olympics campaign. And it was not just the on-court performance from James and Co. that overshadowed the Joker squad. Rather LeBron James excelled at the sartorial element as well after securing gold for Team USA.

Recently, as per TheWatchBusiness‘s report on X, as soon as LeBron James got out in casual attire for celebration, he was seen wearing a Richard Mille RM 11-03 Chronograph. Notably, the watch is a limited edition watch with just 150 pieces available all over the world! That’s why the spectacular piece of watch fashion comes at $400,000 each. However, 3x MVP could not surpass Lakers‘ LeBron James in this off-court as well.

In an adorable gesture, Nikola Jokic bought his whole Serbian squad Rolex Watches after bagging bronze, as per Blic. However, each model that Jokic got for his national team peers cost him about $32,500. So in total, Nikola Jokic got to spend about $375,500 for eleven of his Serbian national basketball teammates. But in comparison to King James’ luxury at the Paris Olympics, Nikola Jokic’s whole squad fell short.

Also, if you think that is the height of luxurious wrist apparel from LeBron James, then you’re wrong! The Lakers star is a big-time watch enthusiast and owns watches worth millions!

LeBron James’ millionaire watch collection even belittles his Paris Olympics feat!

Despite owning Nikola Jokic at the Paris Olympics on-court and off-court, LeBron James boasts a watch collection that is nothing short of extraordinary. An important piece of his well-curated wrist apparel collection is Audemars Piguet. James is an aficionado of the watch brand as he boasts its limited edition Royal Oak Offshore LeBron James. With just 600 pieces exclusive in the market, it comes at a hefty price of $100,000.

Have an interesting take?

However, the wrist gem that truly stands out in James’ watch collection is Tiffany x Patek Philippe Nautilus. This model came out on Patek Philippe’s 170th anniversary after years in  Tiffany blue color. It was a comeback for the model after its discontinuation. However, as soon as it hit the market, it reached the wrists of notable figures like Jay-Z, billionaire Bernard Arnault, and Leonardo DiCaprio. That’s why it comes at a staggering price of about $6.5 million and has only 170 pieces available.

Apart from the million-dollar possession, James also owns Royal Oak Offshore Tourbillon’s 25th-anniversary edition. He’s got both the stainless steel model and the 18 K pink gold edition of the watch, as per Superwatchmen. With only 50 pieces produced for the market, the watch boasts a spectacular price tag of about $572,000.

Overall, it seems LeBron James will beat the Joker in every watch comparison since he is a big-time wrist enthusiast. After all, the King got to choose his jewels wisely!
