While LeBron James is one of the greatest players of all time, he doesn’t get the credit he deserves for being such a captivating personality. LeBron James is incredibly charismatic, and that charisma has been a gift for brands, including Nike and the NBA, to build around him.

One ad from the early 2000s shows just how incredibly charismatic LeBron James can be. In an ad for Nike, LeBron James played various different characters, showcasing his incredible personality and his underrated acting skills. In the hilarious commercial, LeBron shows just how funny he can be, and why he is such a strong representative in the NBA.

Playing an older man, LeBron hilariously told himself that he shouldn’t be training in a swimming pool because Michael Jordan would not train in a pool. LeBron, who had been compared to Michael Jordan even before he entered the NBA, stayed pretty stoic throughout the commercial, despite other versions of himself coming up with hilarious quips.

 LeBron James Found Success With Acting

LeBron James has proven over the years that he can be a pretty decent actor. He has hosted NBC’s Saturday Night Live, a comedy sketch show that only some of the biggest names in the world are given the privilege to host. On top of that, he has had roles in movies like Trainwreck, where he wowed audiences with his comedic timing.

Earlier this year, LeBron James starred in and co-produced ‘House Party’ a remake of the 1990s cult classic of the same name.

James was hilarious in the movie, even giving himself compliments in a scene, and was also central to the plot of the entire movie. James has enjoyed making moves in media, with that being a big motivation in his signing with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2018, as LA is the media capital of the world.
