LeBron James is once again making headlines, not for his performance on the court, but for his growing influence off it.
The NBA superstar is now leading the charge to become the owner of a potential new franchise in Las Vegas-marking a bold new chapter in his already legendary career.
According to reports from Evan Sidery, James is teaming up with RedBird Capital and Fenway Sports Group to launch a formal bid for an NBA expansion team.
The group’s vision includes building a brand-new arena on the Las Vegas Strip, positioning them at the heart of the city’s rising sports scene.
Given James‘ vast business empire and previous collaborations with these partners, the move feels both strategic and natural.
James seen as the frontrunner
NBA insider Ric Bucher believes James is the clear frontrunner to lead the ownership group.
And though Commissioner Adam Silver has said the league isn’t ready to expand just yet, he also admitted expansion is “inevitable”-especially once the NBA’s next media rights deal is finalized.
That deal could be worth a staggering $8 billion per year, a game-changing figure that would open the door to league growth. Once expansion is on the table, few names will carry more weight than LeBron James.
With his wealth, global recognition, and passion for the sport, he’s not just a strong candidate, he may be the perfect face of a new NBA era in Las Vegas.
As LeBron looks toward ownership, his son Bronny is beginning to carve his own path in the league, following in his steps upon joining the Los Angeles Lakers.
In his NBA Summer League debut, Bronny delivered a strong first impression-scoring 10 points in just 11 minutes and helping the Lakers to a dominant 103-83 win over the Miami Heat.
But it was more than just numbers that caught attention. A powerful dunk electrified the crowd and made its way across social media, prompting a quiet but proud reaction from LeBron himself.
On Instagram, he shared a clip of the dunk with only a bicep and prayer emoji, set to the track “Fly Like an Eagle.”
It was a subtle nod to his son’s hard work-and a reflection of a father proud to watch the next generation rise.
Bronny‘s debut showcased his determination and growth. His poise, effort, and ability to contribute immediately suggest he’s focused on making real strides in his NBA journey.
While his path will undoubtedly come with challenges, his performance in Las Vegas is a step in the right direction.
Together, LeBron and Bronny James are writing a powerful new chapter in their basketball legacy-one on the hardwood, the other possibly in the boardroom.
And as the NBA evolves, the James family may find themselves at the very center of its future.
