Presented is a triple-signed May 10th, 2000, Division III Ohio State Championship St. Mary - St. Vincent High School Banquet program autographed on the cover by 15-year-old LeBron James (with his inscribed #32), one of the earliest LeBron James signatures to come to market. James is now in his 20th season in the NBA, but back in 2000 he was a freshman on the basketball varsity at St. Mary - St. Vincent High School. Playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Miami Heat, and the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron has is a 4-time NBA Champion, a 4-time MVP, and a 4-time Playoff MVP. An all-around player, he has played all five positions and is currently a point guard with the Lakers. Over the regular season in his career, LeBron has averaged 27.1 PPG, 7.5 TRB, and 7.3 AST. Bob Huggins was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2022. He has been the head basketball coach at five colleges, including Cincinnati, Kansas State, and West Virginia, where he currently coaches the Mountaineers. He has coached two Final Four college teams, and undoubtedly would have liked to have recruited James to his then program at the University of Cincinnati. Also signing the program was Maverick Carter, a good friend of James, a fellow player on the State Champion team with LeBron, and an All-Ohio Division III Player of the Year, and now LeBron's business manager. The program measures 8.4x11" and has 32 pages, including detailed statistics on James and the team. The signatures of James and Carter are in ballpoint pen and the signature of Huggins is in black ink from a fiber-tipped marker. The signed program even comes with a ticket to the event as our consignor was the person who obtained the signatures. The program is in excellent condition. The signed program comes with a full LOA from JSA.
