It seems fans of the Boston sports scene cannot get rid of LeBron James that easily. The nemesis of the Boston Celtics will have his name among the ownership group of the Boston Red Sox who share the sports scene with the C’s.
James and Maverick Carter have joined Fenway Sports Group, which owns the Red Sox, and the two become the first Black partners in Fenway Sports Group history. This is just another piece of history for James as the NBA legend continues to add to his legacy off the court. While Celtics fans will not be the biggest cheerleaders of this move after everything James has put the franchise through in recent seasons, this is a big deal.
It goes to show that while James will be remembered for being a terrific basketball player, he has also made a big impact off the floor as well.
LeBron is set to become part owner of the Red Sox pending MLB approval, per @MikeSilvermanBB
