LEBRON James and his wife Savannah threw their support to Bronny James after a big announcement from their son.
The 39-year-old LeBron James and his son and Lakers teammate Bronny James can be the first father-son duo in NBA history.

The 2024 second-round pick Bronny played with LeBron during a Lakers preseason game.
The USC product hasn’t played well in the Summer League and the preseason.
Still, it’s been reported that the Lakers are expected to display Bronny’s talents with LeBron in the team’s season opener.
Recently, the 20-year-old opened up about his journey to being a potential player in the NBA in an article he wrote for MensHealth.
Bronny’s mom, Savannah, gave her son plenty of feedback on Instagram.
“Amazing article [Bronny]!! The journey is yours! Your rules, your time, your way! I got your back and front always!!” she posted on Instagram.
“Go to @menshealthmag to read the full article!
Her high school sweetheart husband Lebron then liked the post.
ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania appeared on Get Up! last week and said that the Lakers are expected to debut Bronny in the first game of the season when they take on the Minnesota Timberwolves.
“We’re going to be seeing history very, very soon,” Charania reported.
“The expectation on the Lakers is that their debut together, the first father-son duo in the NBA history to play at the same time in a game, will be as soon as opening night.”
It would be smart for the Lakers to play Bronny on the opening night to get the distraction of him and LeBron playing together out of the way.
Then, the NBA squad can send down the guard to the G-League.
There are plenty of worries that Bronny isn’t ready for the professional league.

He averaged just under 5 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 2.1 rebounds per game during his freshman year with the Trojans.
Bronny is also a year removed from suffering a brutal cardiac arrest during an off-season workout with the NCAA team.
“Not real,” James said about playing with his son during the preseason game.
“We’ll kind of get used to it, but it’s pretty cool.
“It’s pretty cool for the both of us, and especially for our family. It’s definitely a moment that I will never forget.”
