LeBron James' endorsement of Kamala Harris last year came with an added bonus for him.
Records show that on Jan. 28 the former vice president paid James' entertainment company $50,000 for "campaign event production."
James and his longtime business partner, Maverick Carter, founded the company, Springhill Entertainment, in 2020.

Carter and James have been linked since high school. The two played basketball at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio, and are also minority owners of the Boston Red Sox and the English soccer club Liverpool.
Records show the campaign had seven such "campaign event production" payments, each to a different recipient, including one to actress Jennifer Garner for $35,000.
The largest payment went to Production Management One, Inc. for $258,993.
The NBA's all-time leading scorer has long been critical of President Donald Trump, and James urged his followers to "vote Kamala Harris" the week before the election.
"What are we even talking about here?? When I think about my kids and my family and how they will grow up, the choice is clear to me. VOTE KAMALA HARRIS!!!" James posted on X.
When former President Joe Biden decided on Harris as his running mate in 2020, James voiced support.
"Congrats and well deserved Sen. Kamala Harris!! Love to see and support it! Appreciate you JB," he wrote at the time.
The four-time MVP endorsed Hillary Clinton for president during the 2016 election and campaigned for her in Ohio while he was still with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
James previously called Trump a "bum" when Trump rescinded a White House invite to Stephen Curry.
"Going to White House was a great honor until you showed up!" he said at the time.
Trump also once said it "wasn't easy" to make James "look smart."
When Trump said he was losing interest in the NBA after players knelt during the national anthem, James said, "I really don't think the basketball community are sad about losing his viewership."

"[Peace] out gymnastics it’s been real… and of course forever LSU," she said in a post on X.
Dunne, 22, did not compete this week after revealing in an Instagram post last month that she had been sidelined with an "avulsion fracture of my patella."
"It absolutely breaks my heart not to get the opportunity to compete in the (Pete Maravich Assembly Center) one last time," Dunne wrote at the time.
LIVVY DUNNE RIPS TIKTOK TROLL COMMENTING ABOUT HER FIFTH YEAR AT LSU: 'YOU’RE NOT FUNNY'
The New Jersey native was injured after returning for her fifth year at LSU. She had an extra year of eligibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Dunne, who is dating Pittsburgh Pirates pitching sensation Paul Skenes, was one of the NCAA's top NIL earners and boasted millions of followers across several social media platforms. She played a role in helping LSU win its first NCAA title last year.
While LSU failed to defend its title as a No. 1 seed, Utah clinched its fifth straight Final Four appearance at the NCAA women’s gymnastics championship. It joins UCLA, Oklahoma and Missouri.
