Helicopter Commute

LeBron James commutes via helicopter between Philadelphia and New York after 76ers scrimmage.

LeBron James' helicopter landed in New York after the 76ers' first scrimmage, demonstrating his short commute from Philadelphia to New York. The 45-minute flight is shorter than what would usually be a 90-minute to two-hour drive. This comes after James signed a two-year, $8 million deal with Philadelphia and plans to live in both New York and Los Angeles. The estimated cost of the helicopter commute could reach $804,000 for the next two years. James' decision to play in Philadelphia was based on happiness, according to his agent Rich Paul.
