LeBron James is the main attraction wherever he goes and Paris is no different. The Lakers' new superstar surprised fans in Paris at the All Parisian Games, which understandably got the crowd fired up. It's not often that LeBron James shows up in a tiny gym unless it's to watch one of his kids.

LeBron James puts ‘no bag’ critics on blastZachary Draves ·

James is easily one of the most recognizable faces on the planet and might be the most famous athlete in the world. Perhaps one of the world's soccer stars like Cristiano Ronaldo is more famous than LeBron, but he's definitely in the conversation.

When LeBron returns home from France, his first season in the purple and gold will be looming. Training camp starts in just a few weeks and preseason games for the Lakers begin on Sept. 30 against the Denver Nuggets. That will be the first time fans across the world will get to see LeBron wearing a Lakers jersey for the first time.

In Los Angeles, James' star will continue to rise as he enters one of the biggest media markets in the world. Once the season begins, his focus will be completely on basketball and all across the world, all eyes will be on him.
