10 Things You Didn't Know About LeBron James

2. He's Part Of A Three-Person Club

Although he's broken many records in his career, LeBron James' most unusual (and bizarrely impressive) statistic is that he's only one of three men in NBA history to switch teams immediately after an MVP-winning season. His 2010 move from Cleveland to Miami came on the back of a dominant season, albeit one bookended by an underwhelming playoff run which saw his Cavaliers knocked out at the hands of the Boston Celtics. Wilt Chamberlain left the Philadelphia 76ers in 1968 at the end of an MVP season, signing a lucrative deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, while Philly saw an incoming Most Valuable Player in the summer of 1982 in the imposing figure of Moses Malone - arriving from the Houston Rockets. Interestingly, while all three men would go on to win a championship with their new teams, Malone was the only one to do it at the first attempt.
