LeBron James Scores L.A. Home Fit for a King

LeBron James is now a resident on one of the most upscale and notorious streets in L.A. ... and he plunked down a fortune to make it happen.

TMZ has confirmed a company matching one owned by LeBron bought a colonial-style mansion on Rockingham in the Brentwood area of L.A., just blocks away from the home O.J. Simpson owned when his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend Ronald Goldman were found killed.

According to Variety and Real Estalker, which broke the story, LeBron paid around $21 mil for the 9,000 square foot home.
