Throughout his remarkable tenure in the National Basketball Association (NBA), LeBron James has accumulated several outstanding accomplishments. LeBron James has three NBA championships and endorsement deals totaling $480 million, which proves he is no stranger to the life of a wealthy celebrity. A four-time NBA Most Valuable Player, he recently bought a private plane, a G280 Gulfstream, estimated to be valued at about $22 million. LeBron James is renowned for his steadfast commitment to his family. He frequently takes advantage of his private jet to spend time with them. One of the best instances of this is when he chartered a G280 to go to the high school basketball game of his son, LeBron James Jr. To teach his kids humility and appreciation for their good fortune, LeBron James has even gone so far as to forbid them from boarding his private jet. In 2010, LeBron James made the most of his private jet by traveling to see his family and going on holidays. The only other time he used it was to attend the wedding of his close friend Carmelo Anthony. When LeBron James was just starting out in the NBA, Adidas extended an offer to charter a private plane so he and his pals could see a Lakers game courtside. It was hoped that James would agree to an Adidas sponsorship. LeBron James was given the option to sign a $100 million contract with Nike instead of accepting the offer from another company, even though he was also offered this incentive. LeBron James was not convinced by the offers provided to him, despite the valiant efforts of Adidas CEO Sonny Vaccaro to gain his endorsement.
