LeBron James Discusses Importance of Community, Education on 'The Daily Show'

LeBron James isn't representing Team USA at the 2016 Summer Olympics, but he's still a busy man.

The NBA star appeared on Wednesday night's episode of The Daily Show to discuss his multiple projects off the court. During the interview with host Trevor Noah, James stressed the importance of giving back to the community.

He talked about The LeBron James Family Foundation, which works with over 1,000 kids from third grade to high school to prepare for college. Students who graduate receive a full scholarship to the University of Akron.

James said sometimes he'll personally reach out to kids who miss class or are struggling with grades. He also acknowledged that some students will purposely seek a call from the NBA champion.

He also espouses those community ideals through Cleveland Hustles, a CNBC show where he helps local entrepreneurs.

Aside from leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to a championship, it is clear James has a lot on his plate.
