Bronny James is already making headlines ahead of his first season in the NBA. The oldest son of LeBron James went viral on social media by picking Kobe Bryant before Michael Jordan.

In a video posted by House of Highlights on TikTok, the 19-year-old was asked to start, bench and cut the three aforementioned stars. Unsurprisingly, he picked his father to start.

But the surprising decision came with the following answer, as Bronny would bench Kobe and cut Michael Jordan, with a smile at the end of the video. Perhaps this has to do with supporting his father’s case in the GOAT debate.
