Last Friday our hub got a task to do and that task was to create a biography about someone that has greatness. I hope you enjoy it and get a lot of facts about my biography. LeBron James Biography LeBron Raymone James ( also known as King James ). LeBron was born on the 30th of December 1984 in USA, Akron, Ohio the same place that another star was born Stephen Curry. But this isn’t a biography of Stephen this is about LeBron James.  Where did LeBron grow up and go to school ? LeBron grew up in Akron where he had a difficult childhood his dad ( Anthony McClellan ) had been to prison so he wasn’t around when LeBron grew up. His mums name was Gloria James. His family were also poor and this meant that he had tough time and struggled a lot. But his basketball coach, Frankie Walker, took LeBron under his wing and let him stay with his family where he could  then focus on his basketball and school grades. LeBron went to high school at St Vincent - St Mary high school in Akron, Ohio.

I did the 50m Freestyle which I came 2nd in. It was then the 50m backstroke that I got 4th in.

Four Most Valuable Player Awards. Three Finals MVP Awards and finally two Olympic Gold Medals and if you think that's not amazing I don’t know what is. How does he achieve this ?

What every team Lebron plays for he always leads from the front scoring the highest number of points. The
