While LeBron James’ exact place among the greatest players in NBA history is an open and ongoing debate, there is no doubt that he had a stellar career.
His story — growing up underprivileged in Northeast Ohio, making it to the NBA and becoming an all-time great — inspired and impressed many across the country.
One of the most impressive things James does is give back and help those who are disadvantaged or just struggling to get by. His foundation established House Thirty Three, which houses a Starbucks, in his hometown of Akron, Ohio, to help its employees build successful careers in the hospitality industry.
House 33 also houses a museum showcasing some of James’ greatest achievements in his career.

The museum will open to the public on November 25.
James is still performing at a high level in his 21st NBA season, and perhaps he will add even more to this museum in the years to come.
