In his 20th season and at the age of 38, LeBron James is one of the highest-paid athletes in the league. In addition to making money through basketball, he also makes personal investments and signs many cooperation contracts. As the first NBA player to reach a net worth of $ 1 billion, it is not difficult for “King James” to pursue a lifestyle like a king.

He lives in one of the most luxurious and expensive areas in the country – the city of Beverly Hills (Los Angeles, California, USA). LeBron James bought this 1,200-square-foot property in September 2020 for $ 36.75 million (nearly VND 870 billion), slightly lower than the original list price of $ 39 million.

The mansion was built in a Mediterranean style, with breathtaking views of the city. This place is built with 4 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, a cinema room, tennis court, and swimming pool. Inside, the home has vaulted ceilings and is equipped with seven fireplaces. Besides, large glass doors stretching from ceiling to floor help optimize visibility and natural light. The house is surrounded by cypress trees and bronze sculptures, exuding the charm of ancient style.

There is no denying that this property has many amenities. LeBron James feels the house does not suit his style. After 2 years of legal problems, the basketball star was finally able to tear down his lavish mansion and realize his wish to build his “dream home”. LeBron James is one of the most successful basketball players both on and off the court. According to Jagran Josh, during his career, he has accumulated more than 385 million USD (equivalent to 9,128 billion VND) in salary at the NBA American Professional Basketball League.

In June 2022, Forbes magazine announced that basketball star LeBron James officially became a billionaire. This is something no NBA player has done before. Legendary Michael Jordan, another basketball billionaire, achieved this title more than a decade after he retired (in 2014).

However, Forbes said that “King James” lived like a billionaire for many years when he owns at least 3 properties, worth a total of about 80 million USD (nearly 1,900 billion VND). LeBron James built a $10 million mansion near his hometown of Akron (Ohio, USA), buying an 8-bedroom apartment in the Tony Brentwood neighborhood (Los Angeles) in 2017 for $23 million.
