LeBron James' mother, Gloria James, recently visited the newly opened LeBron James Museum in Akron, Ohio. While touring the museum, she shared a funny story about her son's early introduction to basketball.

According to Gloria, she bought LeBron a $25 mini-hoop when he was just two years old. He loved playing with the hoop so much that it became the start of his basketball journey.

LeBron has credited his mother with giving him the opportunity to pursue his dreams of playing basketball. He has said that she is his biggest supporter and that he would not be where he is today without her.

The LeBron James Museum is a tribute to the NBA star's life and career. It features exhibits on his childhood, his high school days, his time in the NBA, and his philanthropic work.
