LeBron James Jokes with Kevin Johnson On Buying Sacramento Kings

Found January 15, 2013 on FootBasket:
PLAYERS: LeBron James
TEAMS: Miami Heat,  Sacramento Kings
LeBron James, to no surprise, definitely has some money in the bank. His total net worth is estimated to be at $110 million, which was last recorded in March 2012. With that, it looks like he has enough to contribute to help saving the Sacramento Kings from going to Seattle. Former NBA point guard and current Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson desperately wants to keep the franchise at home and looks to pursue anyone he can to help join in on the effort to keep the Kings in Sactown. What better source is there for this situation than the King himself? Johnson made the move at a charity event last Friday night, joking with the three-time MVP about buying the team: It’s great that James went along with it. It was fun to watch. I wonder if the NBA would even allow such a move, though, if it were to happen. [USA TODAY]
