In a recent interview with BasketUSA.com, Charlotte Hornets’ swingman, Nicolas Batum, said that LeBron James “is the best athlete in the history of sport.” This is huge praise from the Frenchman who has faced off against James many times. LeBron has just completed winning his third NBA championship and his first with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
LeBron and the Cavs completed an improbable comeback against the Golden State Warriors to win their first championship in team history. James showed just how great he is when he brought Cleveland back from a 3-1 deficit to defeat the MVP, Stephen Curry, in Game Seven of the NBA Finals.
