Bronny James, Son of LeBron James, Drafted by Los Angeles Lakers

A Historic Moment in NBA History

With the 55th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, the Los Angeles Lakers have selected Bronny James, the eldest son of superstar LeBron James.

Bronny James, one of the most highly scrutinized amateur basketball players of the last decade, has finally taken his first step into the professional ranks. The 18-year-old guard was selected by the Lakers, his father's current team, on Thursday night.

The pick marks a historic moment in NBA history. For the first time ever, a father and son will share the same NBA team.

Bronny James is a talented basketball player in his own right. He was a standout player at Sierra Canyon High School in California and is considered one of the top prospects in this year's draft class.

The Lakers are hoping that Bronny James can help them return to contention in the Western Conference. The team has struggled in recent years, but the addition of Bronny James could provide a much-needed boost.
