LeBron James is rooting for his son, Bronny, to become a future NBA player.
His dream is to possibly play alongside his son.
“We never talk about it but his dream is to play in the NBA. He hopes to be in the NBA and play at a high level and he has my support, my blueprint,” LeBron said in an interview reported by Rookie Wire.
“Obviously, with health and a little bit of luck, that would be the ultimate thing for me to be able to be on the same court as my son in this beautiful game but there is a long time between here and there so we just take every day and try to maximize each and every day.”
Bronny, however, is currently a junior in high school and, as per NBA rules, won’t be able to make it to the NBA until 2024.
That means LeBron will have to wait 3-4 more years until his dream could possibly come true.
Bronny’s strong talent already places him as a strong NBA prospect.
Who is Bronny James?
Bronny James, 17, is the oldest of LeBrons’ three children with his wife Savannah James.
He has a brother Bryce, 14, and a sister Zhuri, 8.
While Bryce and Zhuri remain private about their life, Bronny is set to follow in his father’s footsteps.
At the early age of 17, he is already making waves in high school basketball tournaments.
He plays guard on his high school team of Sierra Canyon, in Los Angeles, California.
In 2015, it was reported that Bronny had started receiving athletic scholarship offers from numerous colleges.
Bronny has even been featured in a new Amazon Prime docu-series, Top Class: The Life and Times of the Sierra Canyon Trailblazers.
