Spider-Man is Too Sexy + LeBron’s Secret Philly Deal?
"No, not much. You can't pay LeBron like the amount of money that's gonna matter. But like, I'd imagine if I'm LeBron and I wanna own a sports franchise one day or get into the ownership of sports teams, I might wanna befriend the guy who owns the Philadelphia 76ers, who also owns the New Jersey Devils, who also owns the Washington Commanders, who also owns a Premier League team, something, I forget what it is, who also owns Some lacrosse team who also owns."
Andrew Schulz argues that LeBron James taking a relatively small NBA salary could be about building relationships with influential sports owners for a future ownership bid. He says it is less about direct ‘under the table’ payments and more about long-term access to multi-franchise decision-makers.
