LeBron James, book reader

Here’s how LeBron has talked about his love of reading:

For me, it’s relaxing honestly. You spend so much preparation for the games, sometimes you just need to get away from it for a little bit. The reading has helped me get away from the game a little bit, and I’m able to zero in once I’m done and get ready for the games….

I wanted to try something new in this postseason honestly. I’m not watching much TV so I’m reading a little bit more.
