LeBron James wants to own an NBA team ... in Las Vegas

LeBron James already has his sights set on his newest endeavor: owning an NBA team. He's even picked out where he wants them to play — in Las Vegas.

"I wanna own a team. Yeah, I wanna buy a team. For sure," James said in a preview for "The Shop" on Thursday. " ... I want the team in Vegas."

This isn't a new idea for James. He's talked about owning an NBA franchise since 2016 when he told Jesse Williams and Stefan Marolachakis on the podcast "Open Run" that it was always a dream of his to lead a team off the court.
