LeBron James is more than a month away from signing with an NBA team, but Wednesday night, the 18-year old phenom -- projected to be the No. 1 pick in the June 26 draft -- agreed in principle to a seven-year deal with Nike, sources told ESPN.com.
Terms were not immediately available.
James' agent Aaron Goodwin could not immediately be reached for comment. The James family publicist Alex Boone declined to comment.
Darren Rovell, who covers sports business for ESPN.com, can be reached at Darren.rovell@espn3.com.

But people keep buying Nikes. Or Reeboks. Or Converse. Feeding the beast. Paying for those athlete endorsements. The shoes are worth about $25, really.
I think we have Michael to thank for this mess, besides ourselves, of course. :thumbdown:
