Comedy newspaper The Onion has a new report of a presumably fake excerpt from LeBron James' upcoming book, in which James confesses becoming an NBA pro was the result of a high-school smoke session. In
the article, the king recalls,"I was like, 'Wouldn't it be crazy if your job was to play in the NBA?... I mean, an NBA player? That's crazy. Until then I figured I'd just go to college and become a lawyer or waiter." Read the full piece here.
