Lebron James

NPR | By John Feinstein
Published February 6, 2003 at 12:00 AM EST

Host Bob Edwards talks with commentator John Feinstein about high school basketball superstar LeBron James. He was benched after accepting two free sports jerseys worth nearly $900. Yesterday, a judge in Ohio said the 18-year old can play again, but he must sit out a total of two games. James is expected to be the top overall pick in this year's NBA draft.
