Popular streamer Adin Ross is confident that if LeBron James launches a YouTube channel, he could surpass Cristiano Ronaldo’s recent milestone of 47 million subscribers in just three days. 

During a recent stream, Ross confidently stated, “If LeBron James made a YouTube channel tonight, he’d be at 50 million in three days. Facts. I’m sorry, but it’s the truth.” 

While the claim seems plausible given James' immense popularity, Ronaldo remains a dominant figure in social media, holding the title of the most-followed athlete on Instagram with 636 million followers. 

LeBron James, although a leading figure in basketball with 160 million Instagram followers, trails behind football stars like Lionel Messi and Neymar, and even cricket legend Virat Kohli and WWE icon The Rock in terms of social media reach.

Cristiano Ronaldo's YouTube channel, which launched on August 21, achieved 47 million subscribers within a week.

In comparison, LeBron James' existing "Mind the Game" podcast with JJ Redick has 654,000 subscribers. 

As James, who will turn 40 in December, continues his NBA career, rumors are circulating about the Lakers targeting Luka Dončić as a potential future replacement.
