For James, this is not his first dealing with the firm. The year 2011 provided him the luxury of owning a two percent share of the Liverpool soccer franchise.

As a partner of FSG, he is a part-owner of the Red Sox and other subsidiaries, including Roush Fenway Racing, NESN, and Fenway Sports Management.

A close friend and a long-term associate of the NBA star, Maverick Carter, is equally in the deal. Both men made groundbreaking history as being the first African American partners in FSG.

The 36-year-old has not been the only one celebrating the news. SportsCenter, a sports news outlet, also shared the big news on their platforms, and it had close to half a million likes followed by thousands of comments.

James' business acumen can never be undermined. While he plays his game on the basketball court with passion, he is open to great business deals that can advance his worth.

He is one of the richest basketball players. He is worth $343 million from NBA contracts, owns a media company, is a part-owner of the Blaze Pizza Company, has a share in Ladder Supplement Company, and is a lifetime ambassador of Nike.
