James grew up a two-sport athlete and spent time on the football field. In fact, he was considered Ohio’s top HS football prospect. There was also a point in his 21-year NBA career when he considered trying out of the Cleveland Browns. If there was anyone who could do both professionally, “The King” would be a top pick.
