Gloria agreed to let James move in with the family of Frank Walker, a local youth football coach who introduced James to basketball when he was nine years old. Gloria realized that her son would thrive in a more secure family setting.
James signed up for basketball leagues in his fifth grade year. Later, he played basketball for the Northeast Ohio Shooting Stars in the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU).
James and his pals Sian Cotton, Dru Joyce III, and Willie McGee led the group to local and national fame. The foursome dubbed themselves the “Fab Four,” and they agreed to go to high school together.
