NBA: LeBron to appear on '60 Minutes'

CLEVELAND — Tick ... Tick ... Tick ... LeBron James is set to appear on TV's most famous stopwatch.

Cleveland's superstar will be profiled on CBS' "60 Minutes" this Sunday in an interview he did a few months ago. The 24-year-old, who has led the Cavaliers to the NBA's best record this season, sat down for the one-on-one with show contributor Steve Kroft.

The magazine show spent time at one of James' practices and filmed him at his Akron high school, as well as at a concert for President Obama he hosted at Quicken Loans Arena with rapper and close friend Jay-Z.

James' mother, Gloria, is also interviewed in the piece.
