LeBron James has always been vocal about supporting his elder son, Bronny James, especially as the latter faces criticism in his journey to the NBA. When the Los Angeles Lakers selected Bronny as the No. 55 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, many fans were quick to speculate that LeBron’s influence played a significant role in his son’s entry into the league. This led to trolling and skepticism about Bronny’s capabilities as a player.
However, LeBron, being a proud father, did not hesitate to defend his son publicly. LeBron posted a video of Bronny’s training on his Instagram account, sending a powerful message aimed at the critics. He made it clear that he fully believes in Bronny’s potential and work ethic.
“Keep working, kid, and (expletive) all the hate/noise! You know your personal legend! THEY DON’T KNOW YOU!” LeBron wrote in the caption.
LeBron has long expressed his desire to play alongside his son in the NBA. Despite this dream, Bronny’s performance during the Summer League was not as strong as many had hoped. Hence, his place on the Lakers’ main roster for the upcoming season remains uncertain.
