LeBron James opening museum devoted to LeBron James

LeBron James' Home Court opens Nov. 25 in Akron, Ohio, James' hometown. Admission price is $23, based on James' uniform number, though it's possible that if the museum is unsuccessful, it'll change the admission fee to $6 — or move it to Miami.

The museum will feature a re-creation of James' high school arena, memorabilia from his 21-year NBA career and even a recreation of his high school bedroom.

It sounds like this is a Hall of Fame devoted to a single player, opening while his career is still going on. While it's impressive that those involved re-created his childhood home in meticulous detail, that's usually something you'll see with figures like Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. As good a basketball player as LeBron is, are people really going to pay $23 to see a re-creation of his old apartment?

Proceeds from the museum go to the LeBron James Family Foundation, so that's the excuse for the project, but it's always questionable when a person writes his own personal history. We'd be surprised if the LeBron museum has a display about "The Decision," the 2011 NBA Finals or his ill-fated TV show "Million Dollar Mile."

The Lakers will visit Cleveland on Nov. 25, which is why the museum is opening on that date. If the 3-5 Lakers are still struggling in two weeks, at least the museum will give James something to celebrate.
