LeBron James is mulling a run for president?of the NBA's players union.
The Miami Heat star is considering whether to pursue the position previously held by Oklahoma City Thunder guard Derek Fisher, FoxSports.com's Jason Whitlock reported Wednesday.
?It?s something he has talked about with a small group of people,? a source close to James told Whitlock. ?He was very vocal at the meeting during the All-Star Weekend about the need for the union to dramatically change. There is a new executive director coming in and new commissioner (Adam Silver). He recognizes that this is the time for the union to change.?
Whitlock's source said that he thinks it's ?unlikely? James will bid for the job, however.
?LeBron doesn?t do anything halfway and he has serious concerns about whether he has the time he knows the job requires,? Whitlock quoted the source as saying. ?The demands on LeBron?s time are already substantial. Whether it?s formally or informally, LeBron has strong opinions on the future of the union and will be very active in the rebuilding process.?
The players could elect a new union president as early as late August at the union's summer meeting in Las Vegas, Whitlock reported.
