And while a professional career for Bronny is at least a year away, his father is already thinking about that prospect.
“I need to be on the court with my son, I want to be on the court with Bronny,” the Lakers star said. ESPN this week.
‘Either with the same team or in a match against him. I don’t want to say we’ll do one-on-one in a game, but I’d love to do something Ken Griffey Sr. and Jr.-esque. That would be cool, for sure.
James was honored before the game at a ceremony when he received a framed jersey.
He received coaching advice from his All-Star father during a break in play.
James and his wife Savannah sat courtside to cheer on their oldest son at the game.
“I ask him what his aspirations are and he says he wants to play in the NBA, so if he wants to do that, he has to work for it. I’m here, I’m just waiting for it.
James previously said the athletic that his final season would be played with his son, a situation that could prompt an unprecedented move to select Bronny in the NBA draft and land his father a four-time MVP as a package deal.
James is having an incredible year individually, especially for his age, as the 38-year-old is averaging 29.1 points per night.
He’s not getting much help, though, as the Lakers are 19-22 and 12 in the Western Conference.
