If you had any doubts about the legacy of LeBron James, the construction of his new museum in Akron, Ohio, should be all the proof you need to understand his lasting impact on the game. The project, which is set to open to the public later this month, is just the latest milestone for LeBron, who took to Twitter to express his disbelief over the current series of events.

“This is still so crazy to me that this is happening!!! I can’t wait for my fans all over the world to get a peek behind the curtain to see what we’ve built and where it all began,” wrote LeBron. “Ain’t nobody better mess up my room either!! Only in Akron!”

As an icon of the league and a pioneer of the game itself, there are a lot of stories to tell when it comes to King James. For over 20 years and counting, LeBron has been one of the premier faces of basketball and his journey from a humble kid in Akron has inspired thousands of fans and athletes around the world to pursue their own passions in life. Of course, for James, the museum isn’t just a chance to share some of his own history. It’s also a chance for LeBron to give back to the community, as all proceeds from ticket sales will be reinvested through House Three Thirty’s innovative job training model.


LeBron James Is A Basketball Legend

No player in NBA history is more worthy of a museum than King James. From ground zero in Ohio, James worked his way through the ranks of amateur play before making the leap to the pros in 2003. In the two decades that have followed, James has built an unprecedented run, complete with 4 championships, 4 MVPs, 19 All-Star appearances, and 6 All-NBA defensive selections. In 2023, he also became the NBA’s all-time leading scorer, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s scoring total of 38,387 points.

Off the court, LeBron’s popularity and power have extended beyond the world of sports. In fact, over the past five years, James has found a lot of success as a businessman, culture icon, and social justice warrior for the NBA. While the length of his career remains a mystery for now, his legacy as one of the GOATs is already set and his career will be immortalized forever when it’s all said and done.


LeBron Has Big Ambitions

With James set to turn 39 years old next month, he’s already thinking about the next chapter of his life. With no signs of slowing down on the court, LeBron seemingly still has years left in the tank before he has to step away from the game. In that time, James can add more accolades to his resume and continue to build up his case as the greatest of all time.

In the meantime, he’ll also be building up his empire to carry over his legacy to the world of business. With several movies in the books, business projects booming, and his own museum set to open this month, times are good for LeBron and his crew as they develop the family business. Now, if James can achieve prosperity with the Lakers as well and win when it matters most, it would be the ultimate send-off for one of the game’s all-time greatest legends.
