Despite being one of the greatest players of all time,LeBron James has always been a polarizing figure. Some love him, some hate him, and believe it or not, that has translated to Bronny James, his older son, who’s also expected to be a first-round pick of the NBA Draft once his time comes.
Internet trolls have constantly made fun of the Jameshousehold, and that only went worst when Bronny accidentally posted a video of him celebrating his dad’s win vs. the Denver Nuggets smoking a joint.
Bronny James claimed that he was hacked and was quick to delete the footage but it was already all over the internet, with screenshots of him smoking with a“we smokin’ that Nuggets pack tonight!” caption.
That’s why social media was ruthless when LeBron James congratulated his son over his birthday with a heartfelt message on Instagram, cracking jokes about Bronny James’ alleged incident and having a laugh at his expense.

Needless to say, Bronny’s birthday didn’t go unnoticed on Twitter, as countless members of the NBA community took the liberty of congratulating him in their signature way: with memes and funny videos.
