The L.A. duo was in the Windy City this week.
Los Angeles Lakers All-Star combo forward LeBron James and team president/general manager Rob Pelinka were in Chicago on Wednesday to take in an NBA Draft Combine scrimmage, in which James' son Bronny, a 6-foot-4 reserve freshman combo guard for the USC Trojans, partook.Bronny is hardly projected to be a first round prospect — or a second round prospect, for that matter, at least not based solely on his performance with USC last season.
Prior to the season, his famous father had repeatedly expressed a desire to play alongside Bronny in the NBA before slightly walking back those remarks. Still, it seems likely that some team will at least give Bronny a look in the draft. Pelinka's attendance in concert with LeBron seems to suggest that L.A. will, at the very least, do its due diligence with regards to the younger James.
