#1 LeBron James

LeBron James is the best first overall pick to come out of high school

Its every NBA player's dream to put a dent in the universe when they get drafted, but when you get people to question whether the greatest to ever do it was really the greatest to ever do it or not, you have put more than a dent in the universe. That is the question LeBron James made us ask ourselves right from his first season.

Oh, his first season in which he was Rookie Of The Year, some might even say LeBron should've made the All-Star game in his rookie season. Since being drafted LeBron has 4 MVPs, 3 Rings, 3 Finals MVPs, 14 All-NBA Team selections and 6 All-NBA Defensive Team selections. Try saying that without losing your breath.

LeBron is also the sixth highest paid player in league history and that's some of his on-court achievements. What is the next most important thing to an NBA player? that is easy, sneakers! Nike grasped LeBron right from the get-go and in 2015 offered him a lifetime deal worth more than a billion dollars. LeBron now sits in elite company with Cristiano Ronaldo as the only two players to have lifetime contracts with Nike.
