<p>LeBron James is the latest NBA superstar to make a huge donation to the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture.</p>
<p>The museum officially opened back in September and other well-known athletes who have made a contribution include Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson.</p>
<p>According to <em><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/cavaliers/2016/11/17/lebron-james-donating-muhammad-ali-smithsonian-exhibit/93965414/">USA Today</a></em>, James along with his charitable foundation and his business partner will donate a total of $2.5 million for the new Muhammad Ali exhibit.</p>
<p>James said to USA Today Sports, “Muhammad Ali is such a cornerstone of me as an athlete because of what he represented not only in the ring as a champion but more outside the ring — what he stood for, what he spoke for, his demeanor.”</p>
<p>He continued, “I think of him every day. Without his passion and goals and morals, I don’t know if I’d be sitting here today talking to you about it.”</p>
<p>The legendary boxer passed away earlier this year at the age of 74. The name of the exhibit will be called, “Muhammad Ali: A Force For Change.”</p>
