Well, unless he gets injured before this.

BRISTOL, Conn. -- LeBron James is bringing high school basketball back to ESPN.


ESPN2 will televise the Dec. 12 game between the star senior's team from St. Vincent-St. Mary High of Akron, Ohio, and Virginia's Oak Hill Academy.


It's ESPN's first regular-season prep game since 1989.


James was Ohio's Mr. Basketball the last two seasons, and he's appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated. He is so highly regarded that he could be the No. 1 overall choice in the next NBA draft if he decides to skip college.


Some St. Vincent-St. Mary's games already are being sold for up to $7 on pay-per-view TV in northeast Ohio.

Don't believe the hype. If you don't believe me go buy a Big Mac from Chris Washburn.

He's got a shitload of tattoos that his school doesn't allow to show when representing them.

How did the college bound Oak Hill players look?

The kid is a man among boys at the high school level. He singlehandedly beat Oak Hill last night.
At the pro level he will need to work on the 3 ball and prove he can compete on the defensive end. Talent is there.
At the college level he can emerge as a superstar if played at the right position.

Was he playing on 10ft. goals? That break away dunk was freaking ridiculous. Talk about playing above the rim, he had his head above the rim.
