Maverick Carter, LeBron James' business manager.Inc.com selects Maverick Carter as one of America's coolest young entrepreneurs (30 under age of 30).
Carter is LeBron James' manager and buisness partner in their company of LRMR. Jason Del Rey writes how Carter helped put together LeBron's deals with McDonalds and State Farm. And how Carter negotiated a contract extension for LeBron with Nike.
But Carter, like James, also has this hanging over their heads, writes Del Rey:
James and Carter have been panned for arranging the one-hour special on ESPN in which James announced that he was spurning his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers to join Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh on the Miami Heat. Critics have also suggested that James's legacy and brand could suffer from overexposure as well as sharing the spotlight with Wade, who has already won a championship with Miami.
"The only thing that's taken into account is where he can win," Carter said of James's decision in May, before it was announced. "People love winners."
