Lakers star LeBron James says his son, Bronny, is inspiring him to be at his best as he embarks on the 21st season of his NBA career.
At the Lakers media day Monday, he was something else entirely, something which he says has inspired him to return for his 21st season.Lakers star LeBron James and teammates say the team’s continuity after last season’s trade-deadline rebuild has them in good position for training camp., he gave Los Angeles a rare glimpse into his devotion to his tight family unit.
His answer was heavy but hopeful. He said Bronny was doing well, that he had undergone successful surgery, and that he was working toward returning to the court for the Trojans this season. Remember, this was the child that James once said would accompany him to his final NBA stop. LeBron, 38, said he would attempt to join whatever team drafted Bronny, 19, next summer so they could play together. Those plans have clearly been put on hold. These days, James said he is thrilled just to see Bronny alive and active.
He finished talking about Bronny’s emergency, but he was not finished talking about his sons. The man who hinted at retirement last spring said Monday that it was family that inspired him to stay at least for one more season. James has a player option after this season, and could use that clause to either change teams or receive a new contract or just as an excuse to retire.
