UNC basketball legend Ed Cota made LeBron James want to be a Tar Heel

However, the topic of colleges came up on James' podcast, Mind the Game Pod, starring James and former Duke Blue Devil and NBA veteran JJ Redick. Not only was James inspired by the "point god" Ed Cota, but he also flat-out told Redick that he had absolutely no desire to go to Duke. (Keeping It Heel)
