Perhaps I should have instead said "is that still happening at meaningful rates".

LeBron James is an interesting example. Per wiki: > Realizing that her son would be better off in a more stable family environment, Gloria allowed him to move in with the family of Frank Walker, a local youth football coach who introduced James to basketball when he was nine years old.

and then later he went to a fancy private high school (whose wikipedia page has many notable alumni, all athletes).

So while "from poverty" may be technically accurate, I don't know if I'd count it given all his opportunities later in childhood.
