That might not be great news for the Los Angeles Lakers. According to renowned NBA insider Marc Stein, at least two teams would be able to convince LeBron to join them if they get their son, as James can become a free agent by declining the final year of his contract with the Lakers.

Two Unnamed Teams Could Get LeBron If They Draft Bronny

I know of at least two teams on the NBA map that believe LeBron James would consider signing with them at far less than $51.4 million if Bronny James is on the roster. There might be more,” Stein wrote.

Bronny Doesn’t Dream Of Playing With His Dad

James has always been vocal about his desire to play with his firstborn. Bronny, however, played down that notion when asked whether that was also a goal or dream of his:

“My dream has always just been to put my name out, make a name for myself, and get to the NBA, which is everyone’s end goal that’s here. I never thought about just playing with my dad, but of course, he’s brought it up a couple of times. But yeah, I don’t think about it much,” Bronny said.

At the end of the day, Bronny will have to make a name for himself in this league, regardless of his last name. Still, it would be very nice and heartwarming to watch him team up with his old man.
