LeBron James has made quite a name for himself on the basketball court. He spent seven seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers, leading them to all-time winning records. Despite setting records, he could not lead them to a championship. After failing, yet again, in 2010, he bolted for Miami.

The Miami move hurt LeBron James' popularity, but his play has remained stellar. But, outside of basketball, LeBron James is looking to make his presence known. During the 2006-2007 season, James had a commercial series called The LeBrons. He has decided to revive them for a new animated series.

Last week, Drake joined the cast of the new series. Drake has been a big fan of LeBron James for years. The Toronto rapper recently said he wanted to make a song about James. In 2009, he was a major part of LeBron James' soundtrack for More Than A Game. The song, "Forever," which was led by Drake and featuring Lil Wayne, Kanye West, and Eminem, was inspired by LeBron James.

The NBA star continues to make moves, as he has recently added wife-to-be and "Clean House" alum, Niecy Nash, to the cast of his upcoming series. Nash will be providing the voice of Gloria, who serves as the mother-figure in the series. Like Drake, Niecy Nash is a fan of LeBron James and she quickly agreed to be a part of his new series. Having Drake already on the cast helped her make a decision quicker, as she also likes his music.
