It was the dream that LeBron James first floated a few years ago, the notion of playing in the NBA alongside one of his sons.

And its a step closer to reality now.

Bronny James the oldest son of the NBAs all-time scoring leader and four-time champion was drafted Thursday by the Los Angeles Lakers, the team that his father has played for since 2018. Bronny James was taken with the No. 55 overall pick, deep in the second round and with only three picks remaining in this years draft.
