A few weeks ago, after the Los Angeles Lakers were eliminated by the Denver Nuggets in the playoffs, LeBron James brought a lot of uncertainty about his future with the franchise.
“I’ve seen, heard a lot of reports about my future. I’ll say it again. I do not know yet as I’m only thinking about spending time with my family & friends! When I know after speaking with the fam, my counsel as as my representation about it then you guys will know. Until then (silence emoji). Love.”
Now, in shocking news for the NBA, the Lakers could be willing to grant LeBron James with the greatest wish of his professional career. Playing alongside his son Bronny.
The first move to complete that plan was reported by Adrian Wojnarowski as Dan Hurley of the University of Connecticut has become the priority to replace Darvin Ham. No J.J. Reddick as head coach for the King.
