Best friends in the NBA: On and off the Court

[Lebron23]

1. LeBron James and Dwayne Wade- Wade is always invited in LBJ's Bike-a-Thon, and LeBron always respected Wade as one of the best player in the NBA.

It all started in the 2004 Olympics, when Wade and LeBron became friends after representing the USA National Team in the International Competition.


2. Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley- they have one of the greatest rivalry in the 1990's, but Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley are great friends outside of the Basketball Court.

Barkley is Jordan's Favorite Golf Buddy.

3. LeBron James and Daniel Gibson- - LeBron James give some tips to young Boobie Gibson, when he is just starting his NBA Career, and last year in the Eastern Conference LeBron passed the ball to Gibson because he knows that this kid is capable of hitting his outside shoots.

2008 Rookies vs. Sophomores MVP - Daniel Gibson

anyone remember francis and mobley? Some serious man love there.

"I can't put it into words," he said. "Playing with a guy, living with a guy, just knowing that every day when I wake up that's something I can count on, that I'm going to be in practice or in a game with Cuttino.

"Him not being here is going to be tough for me. I don't know what I'm going to wake up for."

I don't know about Lebron and Gibson making the list. They have only known eachother 2 years and you're basing their "best friends" status on Lebron being an unselfish player and a leader.

Try Chauncey Billups and Kevin Garnett - best man at eachothers weddings and Chauncey was involved in Kevin's decision to go to Boston in the first place
