Fact Check: Did LeBron James Share His Thoughts on Primes Sponsorship Deal With Lakers?
As a premier franchise in sports worldwide, the Los Angeles Lakers represent only the highest quality, proven by their recent partnership with PRIME Hydration, the up-and-coming sports drink brand.
Launched by YouTubers Logan Paul and KSI in 2022, PRIME Hydration swiftly established itself in the market, offering products like energy and sports drinks, and hydration sticks. As of January 2024, it reigned as the top-selling sports and hydration drink at Walmart.
On Tuesday, the Lakers proudly named PRIME Hydration as their official sports drink, further enhancing their high-quality image.
In response to Prime Lakers sponsorship, the account @Liabishyy tweeted LeBron James' statement, saying, “I've been drinking prime since my first year with the Heat in 2010, was telling my teammates Ksi and Logan's prime is going to be the next thing just wait and see".
This statement is false, as LeBron has not yet reacted to this news. Additionally, despite Prime announcing a sponsorship with the Lakers, Logan Paul has challenged LeBron James to a match at SummerSlam, to which LeBron has not responded as of now.
The Lakers brand has earned global reach and respect, having been associated with immense star power, from past legends like Kobe Bryant, Magic Johnson, and Shaquille O’Neal, to current icons like LeBron James. 
Hence, the Lakers' partnership with PRIME Hydration is a significant endorsement of the fast-growing brand that Paul and KSI are creating.
LeBron James and SpringHill Company's Documentary Projects for History Channel
The production company founded by Los Angeles Lakers' LeBron James, and his business associate, Maverick Carter, known as The SpringHill Company, further broadens its alliance with The History Channel by initiating three novel documentary works.
The inaugural project, tentatively titled, "Triumph: Jesse Owens and the Berlin Olympics," narrates the riveting events of the Berlin 1936 Olympics. Here, Jesse Owens, a black field and track athlete, defies Adolf Hitler's intent to exhibit white dominion, by winning an unparalleled four gold medals.
Another project revolves around Jim Thorpe, the first Native American Olympic Gold winner, while the nature of the third documentary remains undisclosed as of now.
James expressed The SpringHill Company's aspirations for these ventures during an interview with Variety's Selome Hailu. He believes that these endeavors illuminate and share these narratives with the younger generation.
Some people argue that James' off-court endeavors, community services, and such projects; outweigh his basketball successes. As James continues to demonstrate that he is not just an athlete, these projects substantiate that belief.
