IWith a little sporting imagination, American midfielder Diego Luna sparked an interesting debate by suggesting that NBA icon LeBron James could have been an extraordinary soccer player who could dominate the field for his national team.
We often imagine what an athlete like this would be like if he pursued a career in another sport, and with LeBron James as the greatest figure in basketball, it’s fun to wonder what he would do in another field, in this case soccer, but Luna clearly seems to be giving soccer too much credit.
Diego Luna nominates LeBron James as soccer player
Luna, who recently started making headlines for his comments at LAX airport, has not been shy about putting NBA stars in key positions on offense.
“LeBron, put it up there,” Luna told the media. “Scoring goals and just dominating people. That would be pretty cool.”
At his best he will be a great football player, no doubt
LeBron James shined in other sports too
Not only that, but he was also a talented wide receiver on the football team.
His skills were so remarkable that some NFL experts hinted that he had the potential for a professional career, but James decided to move on to another sport, and apparently that wasn’t too bad for him.
The name LeBron James is famous not only in the world of basketball, but also in the world of sports in general, and is even considered one of the greatest athletes of all time, so you can try your luck anywhere you want.
