NBA Rumors: Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly exploring the possibility of adding Bronny James (he will be elegible in the next NBA Draft) to keep small forward LeBron James happy at the franchise.
The 39-year-old’s future has been a point of discussion in the world of NBA where it was reported by numerous sources that he might end up leaving the franchise in the recently concluded mid-season transfer window.
However, James ended up staying with the franchise at least till the summer when the transfer window will re-open.
As per the latest report by the Athletic reporters Sam Amick, Anthony Slater and Jovan Buha, the Lakers are now exploring the possibility of signing LeBron’s son Bronny to keep him happy at the franchise.
“The Lakers, per the high-ranking team source, are also willing to explore the notion of adding Bronny James next season. This stance, the source said, is rooted in the reality that James’ happiness truly matters to the organization,” the report said.
It is an open secret that LeBron is very keen to play alongside his son in the NBA before retiring from the sport. If that happens, they will become the first father-son duo to achieve that feat in the competition.
Bronny, who is currently playing for the USC Trojans Guard, is expected to be involved in the NBA draft for the next season. On the other hand, LeBron is having another fabulous season for the Lakers where he is averaging 24.8 points, 7.2 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game.
