The meeting, organized by LeBron, was aimed at creating a bonding experience prior to the NBA Finals. What is surprising is that LeBron, who has been a spokesman for the Korean tech giant for years, chose to give away Apple watches to his teammates as a token of gratitude.
This is not the first time that LeBron embraced both brands. The basketball player advertises for Beats by Dre, which was acquired in 2014 by Apple.
