LeBron James is a billion-dollar brand. He is the face of the NBA worldwide. Without James, the league wouldn’t have achieved its popularity in Asia and Africa. There are millions of LeBron fans all around the world. He is a 4 time NBA champion, 4-time Finals MVP, 4-time Regular Season MVP, and an 18-time NBA All-Star.
His investments off the court have turned out fruitful. But sometimes, like any other person, he commits mistakes. The only thing separating us from him is that those “mistakes” are very expensive. One of those “mistakes” happened right after the Lakers’ NBA title win in 2020.

He once demanded a Porsche 918 Spyder. It was the world’s fastest car. But there was one slight problem, the production for this model was already closed. All of the cars were sold out. Hence, James had to take a hard step. He paid $2.2 million to get that car. ‘King James’ could have bought the car earlier at $845,000. But he ended up bribing an owner to acquire that vehicle.
It was a very difficult decision for LeBron to take. But, luckily, a call came in from the Los Angeles Lakers, who wanted to give him a new contract after the 2020 win. It was a 2-year, 85 million deal. This served as an excuse to buy that car.
LeBron James has an enviable car collection
People can only think about what cars LeBron has in his garage. He invests a lot of money in his collection of expensive and unusual vehicles.
He currently owns 15 vehicles totaling over US$2.5 million. Supercars like a Lamborghini Aventador, three Ferraris, a Rolls-Royce, two Maybachs, and a Porsche are among the fast and furious models in his fleet. Well, why not when you earn approximately $100 million per year, including endorsements?
