As LeBron James’ oldest son prepares for his first season as an NBA player, the four-time MVP has made a unique request for the youngster to emulate football stars Lionel Messi and Neymar too.
LeBron and Bronny James are set to become the first father-son duo to play together in NBA history during the upcoming 2024/25 season after the 20-year-old guard was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers with the 55th overall pick in the NBA draft earlier this year.
The 6ft 2ins rookie attended the University of Southern California last year, making just six starts for the USC Trojans and averaging 4.8 points per game.
An avid video game player, Bronny has participated in multiple Call of Duty tournaments and has often posted about the game on his social media accounts.
