The NBA’s Newest Villain still holds a special place in Fortune Magazine’s heart. Lebron has the distinction of being the only athlete to make the magazines’ 2nd annual “40 under 40” list.
Coming in at #20, Lebron also happens to be the youngest on the list at 25. The list combined both his earning power on and off the floor (an estimated $42.4 million this year) and the attention he generated during the free agency process this summer.
