We all have heroes. We admire some because of who they are and some because of what they do. They inspire our interests, the way we live, the way we act, and sometimes even the way we dress. While anyone can be a hero, a common inspiration for many of us is athletes. LeBron James plays the role of hero to many now, but he?s always given credit to those that inspired him. In correlation with the Nike LeBron 9 “Griffey” release, we transcend five of LeBron?s favorite sports heroes into creative colorways. Check them out, and tell us your favorites in the voting poll and comment section.
