Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo certainly looks inspired by Lebron James launching an $8 million public elementary school for underprivileged children.
“Lebron James has always been a role model on the court, but what he is doing off the court is unbelievable! We see you @KingJames and now it’s our turn to follow!” Giannis wrote on his Twitter profile. His tweet was accompanied by a picture citing the services of Lebron James’ “I Promise” school to children that will attend it.

James opened the “I Promise” school in his home city of Akron, Ohio with a collaboration between Lebron’s philanthropic foundation (Lebron James Family Foundation) and Akron Public Schools. The three-time NBA champion and four-time MVP has characterized the opening of the school as ” one of the greatest moments (if not the greatest).” of his life.
