One lil’ man has uploaded a proposition directed at LeBron James, which he believes will effectively solve LeBron’s recent woes as well as give the fans what they want and raise money for charity. The youngster presents this win/win/win scenario as LeBron accepting the challenge of entering this year’s upcoming Sprite Slam Dunk Contest, an event he has notoriously dodged to the disappoint of NBA fans worldwide. In return for his willingness to dunk alongside this year’s high-flyers for the coveted title of “Slam Dunk Champion,” an achievement noticeably missing from his resume, the money raised as part of the official ”Challeng” fund will be donated to the Boys & Girls Club of America. The catch is that the money will only be collected by the charity organization if LeBron finally agrees to dunk this year. Closing with the line — “You don’t want to let the Boys & Girls Club down do you?” — this may be the most pressure LBJ has faced to participate. The ball is in your court LeBron. You can join by donating to the “Challeng” fund here.
