Will Bronny Call LeBron James ‘Dad’ On The Court If He Plays With Him? NBA Twitter And Reddit Pose Interesting Question


LeBron James' son Bronny has been busy preparing for the 2024 NBA Draft, where he's expected to be picked by the Los Angeles Lakers, and link up with his father. LeBron and Bronny sharing the court for the first time will likely be an unforgettable moment. After considering it though, a Reddit user recently pointed out a hilarious dilemma they'd have to face when they play together.

On the NBA subreddit, a user named 'Hopeless Moderate' asked fellow Redditors whether Bronny would call LeBron 'dad' when they are on the court. They also pondered whether the Lakers superstar would showcase his palpable frustration at Bronny when he inevitably commits an error like he does with other teammates, or show restraint.

A screenshot of the Reddit post was shared on X, formerly Twitter, and it produced a slew of interesting replies. One fan claimed that the most likely solution to the dilemma is Bronny yelling '23,' LeBron's jersey number.

Another fan said he shouldn't hesitate to call him 'dad,' regardless of how uneasy it may sound.

One fan chimed in with their experience sharing the field with their father and their solution to the dilemma.

A few others used the original post as inspiration and asked several hilarious questions, including LeBron's reaction to Bronny getting hazed and the Lakers superstar's reaction to his son calling an iso mid-game.

This discussion is entertaining but premature considering that the Lakers have neither drafted Bronny nor has LeBron committed to playing for them next season.

The four-time MVP is expected to announce that he will opt out of the final year of his deal with the franchise and sign a new multi-year contract extension that would keep him in LA until he retires. However, the announcement and the extension are yet to come through.

Lakers fans are waiting with bated breath for the veteran forward to sign the contract that would tie him to the franchise until he retires.

As far as Bronny is concerned, the Lakers and the Phoenix Suns are the only teams the young guard has worked out for ahead of the draft. LA owns the 17th and 55th pick in the draft and is expected to spend one of those on the former USC Trojan. However, there's scope for another team to beat the Lakers to the punch.

No other franchise has hinted at wanting Bronny, but things could change on draft night. There's even a small possibility that the young guard lines up against his father rather than playing alongside him in his rookie season in the NBA. Simply put, absolutely anything could happen.

NBA Rumors: LeBron James' Son Bronny Is on Draft Boards of 'Multiple Teams'

Chris Coduto/Getty Images Bronny James' USC team has struggled this season, but that reportedly hasn't stopped the NBA interest in the son of legend LeBron James. "When I talk to people around the league, he's on the draft boards of multiple teams," Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reported Thursday: Charania noted teams around the league believe he is "further along" on the defensive side of the ball than the offensive side, which makes performances like Wednesday's all the more important. The USC freshman finished with 11 points, six assists and five rebounds while shooting 5-of-11 from the field in one of his best offensive showings of the season in a loss to Arizona. The only game that he scored more points in was a Dec. 30 loss to Oregon State when he finished with 15 on 6-of-11 shooting from the field. Perhaps most importantly, James played a season-high 30 minutes against the Wildcats on Wedn...

What Happened to the Rivalry Between LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony? - Bleacher Report

They were two young stars with unique and special abilities on the basketball court. They had recently played in a high-attention scholastic contest against each other. They were both selected in the same draft. The LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony rivalry was supposed to be the best individual rivalry since Magic and Bird. But while the relationship between Bird and Johnson is dramatized in a new Broadway play , Anthony and James will meet for the 15th time in their careers and do so without much fanfare. James and Anthony first met in a USA developmental camp in 2001 . Much like how Johnson raved about Bird after they played together on a college All-Star team playing in an international tournament, James couldn’t stop talking about Anthony. The two squared off in a high school showcase game the following year that pitted the player regarded as the best senior in the country (Anthony) against the one that was the best junior in the country (James), a game Anthony’s team wo...
