Since cashing in on his ’04-’05 Isiah Thomas free agency millions. There are a few things James has not gotten around to doing as a wealthy NBA athlete like playing basketball, eating salads, taking the stairs or paying the jewelry man.
In the civil suit, filed in L.A. Superior Court today, Lemmerman’s Inc. claims James bought a $70,000 engagement ring in 2008. The jeweler claims Jerome paid $50,000 up front and promised to pay the balance.
And there’s more — according to the docs, Lemmerman’s maintained a credit account for James … who allegedly racked up a grand total of $96,000 in bling-related purchases.
The jeweler also claims that James hasn’t made a payment since January 2009. If you think 96K in jewelry is a lot, you should his monthly Sizzlers expenses.
Zing!
