LeBron James Rejected Billionaire Elon Musk’s $62.5 Million Offer That Could Have Made Him a Part of Twitter History
One of the most anticipated moves in NBA history brought LeBron James from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Los Angeles Lakers. Interestingly enough, the 4 time NBA champion received an interesting proposition from Billionaire CEO Elon Musk when he was looking for a home in the city of Los Angeles.
According to reports, Musk offered James his previous home. However, King James did not find the house fit for himself and he acquired another estate nearby.

The talk of the town currently is Elon Musk potentially owning the popular social media platform Twitter. According to the latest reports, the Tesla CEO and founder is ready to own Twitter. He has launched an official bid of around $43 billion to buy the microblogging platform.
Interestingly enough, he plans to release Twitter’s “extraordinary potential” to boost free speech and democracy across the world. This comes just days after Musk officially bought a 9.2% stake in Twitter.
