CAVALIERS star LeBron James can see himself following idol Michael Jordan into NBA ownership.
James, whose path to superstardom has followed a similar trajectory as Jordan's, said last night before Cleveland faced Chicago in Game 5 of the playoffs that he would "love" to someday own an NBA team. Jordan assumed ownership of the Charlotte Bobcats in March, buying the club for US$275 million from Bob Johnson.
"I would love to be in that position," James said. "It's a great position to be able to own a team and be able to put pieces together and make decisions."
The 25-year-old James, who has made savvy business decisions since joining the league, said he understands the challenges of ownership.
"It's definitely a tough job," said James, the NBA's reigning Most Valuable Player. "But I love the game and I know talent. If an opportunity presents itself later on in my life, then I will try."
