Rich Paul is a popular American sports agent who founded the Klutch Sports Group in 2012. The agency, which manages iconic basketball player LeBron James who is also said to be Paul's best friend, also provides services to a host of other NBA players.

Born on December 16, 1981, in Cleveland, Paul attended a private Roman Catholic high school. After his graduation, he began selling vintage basketball jerseys out of the boot of his car. It is believed that Paul met LeBron James in 2002 when he sold him a Magic Johnson jersey. Thus began their friendship.

The two reportedly kept in touch, and Paul entered the LA Lakers star's inner circle. He also began working professionally under Leon Rose, who had negotiated James' extension with the Cavaliers in 2006, at Creative Artists Agency.

In 2012, Paul left Rose and CAA to start his own agency, Klutch Sports Group and took James with him. The Los Angeles-based sports agency manages star clients like Anthony Davis, Ben Simmons, Draymond Green, Miles Bridges, JR Smith, Aaron Gordon, Zach LaVine and Lonzo Ball. According to reports, by 2019, Klutch Sports Group boasted a roster of 25 clients and brokered over 1 billion dollars in contracts.

Off the back of his successful career managing some of the biggest NBA basketball stars, it's been reported Rich Paul's net worth is an estimated 120 million dollars. He is now reportedly penning his memoir, called Lucky Me, which Paul hopes will 'uplift and inspire those who lived this and educate those who didn't'.
