No, LeBron James did not play college basketball. He skipped college and went directly to the NBA after high school. LeBron was drafted as the first overall pick by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2003 NBA Draft, straight out of St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio. His decision to go pro directly was a significant part of his career, as he became one of the most highly anticipated players in NBA history before even stepping on the court as a professional.
