NBA legend Michael Jordan remains the most iconic basketball player turned business icon, particularly for his billion-dollar sneaker empire. Lakers star LeBron James has the potential to achieve similar success in the media industry. If LeBron follows in Jordan’s footsteps, he will undoubtedly be grateful for the path Jordan has paved.
While it’s uncertain if James will surpass him, Le Batard recently said that LeBron’s post-playing career has the potential to outshine Jordan’s legendary empire. On Stugotz’s The Dan Le Batard Show, Dan recently spoke with the Shipping Container about why LeBron James is still the best player in the NBA. He stressed on Wednesday’s show that LeBron is still the King, even though he is old.
“I don’t think people realize that LeBron is going to be so much bigger post-[NBA] than Michael was with JUST Nike. He’s going to make and do whatever he wants…He’s going to own a team.” – Dan examines LeBron’s power and where it goes when he’s done playing.

He said, “I don’t think people realize that LeBron is going to be so much bigger post-[NBA] than Michael was with JUST Nike. He’s going to make and do whatever he wants…He’s going to own a team.”
Moreover, he has new teammates, including his son, fulfilling his retirement ambition of playing together. And soon, he’ll be aiming for his third gold medal at the Paris Olympics later this month.
Fans have been sharing their thoughts on Dan Le’s claim in the comments section. Take a look at their reactions.
Michael Jordan Picked The Five Most Underrated NBA Players
Michael Jordan won six NBA titles during his illustrious career with the Chicago Bulls. He shared the stage with greats like Horace Grant, Steve Kerr, and Dennis Rodman. However, he doesn’t mind being in the spotlight very often, and this time, he’s using it to spotlight some underrated talents.
Scottie Pippen, who was with Jordan for all his championship wins, was one of the most underrated players of Jordan’s time. He also named four other underrated players from his era: Tom Gugliotta, Bobby Phills, Mookie Blaylock, and Mitch Richmond.
Gugliotta had a solid career with various teams but never won a championship. Phills, who played for the Cavaliers and Hornets, also never won a title. Blaylock was one of the best defenders, and Richmond won an NBA championship with the Los Angeles Lakers.
