The arrival of Bronny James to the Los Angeles Lakers has generated excitement and high expectations. As the son of the legendary LeBron James, Bronny has garnered significant attention and become a topic of discussion in NBA circles.
However, early impressions of Bronny during training camp have been positive. His talent and dedication have impressed both his teammates and the Lakers’ coaching staff.
LeBron James, visibly motivated by his son’s presence, has intensified his workouts, displaying great energy and competitiveness. The friendly rivalry between father and son has created a positive and competitive atmosphere within the team, and Anthony Davis shared a particular anecdote highlighting the dynamic between LeBron and Bronny.
“It’s fantastic to be able to be here and witness it in practice. Bronny hit a 3 over him today. Everybody was talking smack in Bronny’s favor. Then Bron came down and just bullied somebody. Just took it out on [the defender] — I forgot who it was — and got a layup. Bronny came down and hit another 3, I think over Austin [Reaves]. And Bron wanted the ball,” Davis recounted.
