LeBron James is the most popular and influential player in the NBA right now. It was shown during this summer as he played in the Pro-Am leagues ‘Drew League’ and the ‘CrawsOver’. Many people gather around both gyms to see the four-time MVP play in both games. There were also some players that wanted to show up in front of the ‘King’, including Dion Wright.
Dion Wright is a 31-year-old pro player who attended the Drew League and played on the opposite team of LeBron James. Wright spoke with The Guardian about his experience playing against LeBron James, to which he responded that there are not many players that have the courage to play against an all-star player.

"A lot of people would never even have the b***s to take a shot like that," Wright said. “But you know, I've been in the gym my whole life and I have confidence,” explained Wright. “I just want one team, one person, one GM, to take a real chance on me. I know for a fact they'll never regret it,” concluded the power forward.
Dion Wright led his team with 20 points. His team lost by only two points, despite not having any NBA players and facing two of the top players right now in LeBron James and DeMar DeRozan. It was a good show as the ‘King’ ended with an overwhelming 42 points.
At the end of the day, LeBron James wasn't playing up to his potential during the summer leagues. For him, it was about giving the people a great show, and that's just what he did in the Drew League.
