Following weeks of conjecture over which team he would ultimately play for, the 19-year-old was selected with the 55th pick in Thursday night’s draft in New York.
LeBron James, 39, a four-time NBA champion, is likely nearing the conclusion of his career. If he declines his $51.4 million (£40.6 million) player option when the window opens at the end of June, he may become a free agency this summer.
That possibility, though, doesn’t seem likely considering that the four-time NBA champion stated his “last year will be played with my son” following the 2022 All-Star game.
There is no previous history of father and son playing together in the NBA.
There has never been a father and son to share an NBA basketball floor in the league’s history, and Lakers general manager Rob Pelinka remarked that he thought that may be magical.
We are aware that LeBron has the option to opt out, which we must respect. However, NBA history might be created if it turned out that he was on our team the following season. And it’s time to make NBA history wearing a Lakers uniform.
Bronny wrote “Beyond Blessed” on Instagram, and his father shared a sequence of photos of the two with the message “Legacy.”
