Wow Lebron James Breaks a Record - One of the Greatest Basketball Players of the NBA went to Catholic School and Gives Glory to God!



LeBron Raymone James Sr., known as "King James,"  is an American professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Nicknamed "King James", he is considered to be one of the greatest players in history. James has won four NBA championships, four NBA MVP awards, four NBA Finals MVP awards, three All-Star MVP awards, and two Olympic gold medals. James has scored the most career points in both the regular season and playoffs. He has been named an NBA All-Star a record-tying 19 times, and selected to the All-NBA Team a record 18 times. In 2022 became the first and only player in NBA history to accumulate over 10,000 career points, rebounds, and assists. He married his wife Savannah James in 2013, in and they have three children: two sons Bronny, Bryce, and daughter Zhuri. He gives to several charities and has his own charitable foundation.
 
To the surprise of some who have questioned his faith, James’ response: “I hope we don’t think that way. It’s never that way,” he said. “When you get your guys back, you prepare just as you prepare before. There’s only one guy ever in the world that everything will be all right when He comes back and that’s Jesus Christ. Other than that, you can’t bank on nobody being OK.” 
 James was born and raised in Akron, Ohio and first gained national attention playing for St. Vincent-St. Mary Catholic High School, from which he was immediately drafted into the NBA upon graduation. At home and at school, he had Christian influences that appear to have made a lasting impression. He’s made public appearances in church and attended church charity basketball games near Cleveland. In 2010, James watched as fellow-player Rodney Stuckey suffered a seizure on the court and was taken to Cleveland Clinic Hospital. James responded by calling the players together into a prayer circle, where he prayed to “our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” for healing, he told reporters afterward. While some fans would like to attribute God-like status to his abilities, James is quick to deflect such comparisons. “I’m nowhere near close (to God’s powers),” he said. He once said his abilities as an athlete are from, “the grace of God above; He gave me this athleticism.”
