Family Affair: Lakers Draft LeBron James’ Son Bronny in 2nd Round of Draft
The Los Angeles Lakers have selected the oldest son of LeBron James, Bronny James, with the 55th pick in the NBA draft.
The Lakers’ move will make LeBron and Bronny the first father-and-son duo to play in the NBA simultaneously.
In response to his son being drafted to the same team, LeBron was reportedly very emotional.
CBS Sports reported that LeBron James’ manager, Rich Paul, told several teams not to select Bronny or that he would opt to play in Australia.
Many NBA analysts believe Bronny was selected too early in the draft.
In his lone season with USC, Bronny averaged only 4.8 points.
