2009

And just how big is James, exactly? Well, that is a matter of intense speculation around the NBA. He came into the league in 2003 weighing 240 pounds and is listed at 250 in this year's media guide, but that number is clearly low. There are whispers that he goes 265; one report recently had him at 274. "He's at least 260, right?" guessed Jackson, who added that D-ing up James is like"guarding a brick wall."

In an attempt to settle the matter last week I brought a scale to my interview with James at a ballroom in San Francisco's St. Regis Hotel. He laughed, but didn't get on,saying, "I can't let everybody know everything about LeBron," said James, who more than any other star understands the value of mystique. He did joke that he'd "gotten fat"—this from a man with 5% body fat whose raised veins run like tiny interstates up his arms and calves—then hemmed and hawed before confiding that he had gained eight pounds this summer "even though I was trying to lose 10." That said, a Cavs source puts James's weight "between 265 and 270."

The Power Of LeBron: Appreciating the ways James is evolving (2009)


2014

"LeBron was probably, coming off his wedding and everything, he was probably in quote-unquote the worst shape he's been in a while [at the end of the 2013 season]. He was obviously fine, but he got off to a slow start last season. His back was bothering him early on. He and Dwyane Wade both have gone to this sort of, I don't know if LeBron is terming it paleo, but he's basically gone without carbs."

And while the NBA lists The King at 250 pounds (at 6'8", no less), Windhorst estimates that he's "actually been in the mid-260s and sometimes over 270 in his career."

He added that James "doesn't like talking about it," and that he "has been a little self-conscious about [his weight] in recent years."
