What if I told you that one of the kids in that photo is the reason why LeBron James chose the Philadelphia 76ers?
You're kidding, right?
Not joking.
One of those kids, who actually is another Ohio basketball legend, is the man who convinced LeBron James to choose the Sixers over the Cavs, over the Heat, over the Warriors, over everybody.
Who is this?
This man became the GM of the 76ers less than two months before he convinced LeBron to do this.
His name is Mike Gundy, and he's known LeBron for a long time, as you can tell in that photo.
