For years, there has been speculation about LeBron James possibly playing with his son, Bronny, but the 38-year-old's recent extension with the Los Angeles Lakers seemed to put those aspirations to bed for a moment.
However, <a href="https://www.si.com/nba/2022/08/30/lebron-bronny-bryce-james-daily-cover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in the most recent issue of Sports Illustrated</a>, Chris Ballard spoke with LeBron, and The King doubled down on his desire to play with Bronny and his younger son, Bryce, in the late stages of his career.&nbsp;
&ldquo;I&rsquo;d definitely be looking at who got first-round picks in 2024, 2025, things of that nature; 2026, &rsquo;27. I pay attention to that type of stuff," James told <a href="https://www.si.com/nba/2022/08/30/lebron-bronny-bryce-james-daily-cover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SI</a>.

It's unknown whether Bronny would even like to play at the NBA level at this point, and it feels as if LeBron hasn't put any pressure on him to do so. In <a href="https://www.si.com/nba/2022/08/30/lebron-bronny-bryce-james-daily-cover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the article</a>, James indicates that the decision is Bronny's, and his alone. However, LeBron and his wife confirmed to SI that Bronny is leaning toward playing college basketball.

LeBron's goal, of course, is all contingent on Bronny and/or Bryce being able to break through at the highest level of basketball. Currently, Bronny is ranked as a four-star prospect, and has shown a solid feel for the game while exhibiting a high ceiling. The 14-year-old Bryce has sprouted to 6-foot-6 going into his sophomore season at Sierra Canyon High School.
Under his new extension, LeBron will be a Laker for the forseeable future, which should give Bronny and Bryce all the time they need to develop at the high school and proceeding levels of basketball.

This gives me an idea. Can someone please do the same with the Chris Duhon travel dance? In the meantime, I will just keep watching this on repeat.

Welp. This is awkward. I highly doubt Rudy Gobert or Donovan Mitchell have ever been picked last in gym class. Now they know how the rest of us feel.

The more shocking news would be that there are any teams not interested in Jerami Grant after this season and last. Get in line, Danny Ainge.

The only way to stop Norman Powell is to acquire him. Seems like a fair trade to me.

It pains me to admit how good he is, though Paul Watson Jr. did lock him up in the half-court earlier in the game. Ugh.
