LeBron’s Boat Meeting in France Was About a New Global Basketball League

LeBron James, his business partner Maverick Carter, and Nikola Jokić’s European agent Miško Ražnatović were spotted meeting on a yacht in Saint-Tropez — sparking plenty of speculation. But it wasn’t about team trades or NBA politics. Insider reports confirm the topic was Maverick Carter’s plan for a new $5 billion international basketball league, set to launch in fall 2026 with six men’s and six women’s teams. This league aims to operate like Formula 1: touring different cities each event, giving players equity stakes, and offering a rival structure to the NBA. While LeBron was present, he isn’t officially part of the league—though his influence and connections certainly give it clout. Do you think this new venture could challenge the NBA’s dominance? #NBA #LeBronJames #MaverickCarter #NikolaJokic #NewLeague #GlobalBasketball
