Bronny James’ basketball career hit an unexpected obstacle when he experienced a cardiac arrest during training camp at USC. After a successful high school career at Sierra Canyon, many questioned whether LeBron James’ son would be able to make it to the NBA following this health scare.
However, for LeBron, Bronny’s determination and adaptability have always made his basketball journey special. The proud father even recognized Bronny’s athletic potential when he was just a young child.
During the Los Angeles Lakers media day, LeBron and Bronny sat down together to reflect on their first season as teammates. LeBron took the opportunity to share a special moment from Bronny’s early years that revealed his son’s talent and determination in front of him.
“When he was like five or six years old, I just told him in the locker room before we came out, and he was playing on the Little League Tiny Tots League in our hometown of Akron, Ohio. And I think he was like five or six years old,” James said.
“He had done something, he had grabbed the rebound and drove coast to coast through the lane, through a couple of the other kids, and laid it up and had a little trot back. And I looked over at his mom, and I was like, Oh, he’s special,” he added.
Bronny James Looks Forward to Competing Against LeBron James in Practice
Bronny James is yet to give his father an on-court name, as LeBron James has already forbidden Bronny to call him dad on the court. Despite this playful restriction, the father-son duo is relishing their time together as they embark on this journey.

During the Lakers media day, Bronny shared what he is most excited about as he gets ready to play alongside his legendary father.
“I think I’m most looking forward to practice, just going head to head with each other. That’s such a crazy feeling to be in practice with your dad and competing at a high level,” Bronny said.
“But on the other side of that, having to go against LeBron James is kind of a lot in practice every day. But yeah, I’m looking forward to it as well,” he added.
The upcoming season is expected to be a special one for the James family, as Bronny and LeBron make basketball history together.
