Being the cheapest guy in the NBA might just pay off.

After an interview with ESPN’s Rachel Nichols where Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James revealed he’s the cheapest player in the NBA and doesn’t pay for Pandora Premium, the music streaming service offered him a Premium account.

“I’m not turning on data roaming, I’m not buying no apps, I still got Pandora with commercials so I’ll be listening to some great music at home and then a commercial, “Hey, do you want to win three tickets to go to the Cavs game and meet LeBron, Dwayne Wade, Kevin Love right now,’” James said in the interview with Nichols.

Pandora tweeted the offer at James on Monday and James happily accepted on Tuesday.

Teammate and friend Dwyane Wade who called James the cheapest guy in the NBA also tried to land a free account.
