LeBron James’ High School Hummer Up For Auction

Today is King James 29th Birthday. The NBA superstar received a Hummer truck for his 18th birthday years ago that is now up for auction. The 2003 Hummer H2 driven by LeBron James when he was in high school is now on the eBay auction block.lebron_zoom

 

 James, a three-time Ohio Mr. Basketball and the No. 1 pick in the 2003 draft, was the subject of scrutiny during his high school career, as critics believed he was pursuing a professional lifestyle while still an amateur. He was briefly suspended by Ohio high school regulators when he accepted multiple throwback jerseys worth less than $1,000 during his senior season at St. Vincent-St. Mary, but it was the Hummer that stood as the symbol of James’ unique status among his classmates. Gloria James reportedly secured a loan from a bank in Columbus to obtain the vehicle, even though she had lived in public housing, and regulators were concerned that James had been gifted the vehicle illegally by an agent or some other outside party.

The truck is reportedly  outfitted with 28″ custom rims, a DirecTV TracVision, a Sony Playstation 2, a custom JBL audio soundsystem, a custom chrome grill, multiple television monitors and only logged 28,117 miles.
