LeBron James will play with his son Bronny James after the Los Angeles Lakers took the young USC prospect with the No.55 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. Now, the King’s greatest dream is fulfilled.
Although there were many rumors about the future of LeBron, a possible trade an even retirement, the arrival of Bronny means that the legend will finish his career in Los Angeles.
