Playing with Bronny no longer a priority for LeBron James?
Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has frequently expressed his desire to play on the same team as his son, USC freshman guard Bronny James. However, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported on Tuesday’s episode of NBA Today (2:30 mark) that conversations with James’ agent Rich Paul lead him to believe “that the idea of them playing together is not a priority; it’s not foremost, at least any longer, in LeBron James’ mind.”

Sometimes, a spouse has to know there’s a chance you will leave before they fully straighten up and deliver on your list of requirements — even if there’s nowhere else you’d rather be.

Thinking more about the series, you could argue it was Michael Porter Jr. who ultimately did in the Lakers. AD and LeBron essentially matched the production from Jokic and Murray, but the Lakers had no one to counter MPJ’s numbers as a 3rd guy, or even just credibly guard him. AK – 12:06 PM

The Lakers need to figure out whether going all-in around LeBron gives them a realistic chance at winning a title or whether they’re better off on focusing on landing the next star.

More on this storyline
“I think what LeBron James, Bronny James and Rich Paul said was, if organically somehow they ended up together, that would be great,” Wojnarowski said. “But you look at the Lakers’ draft assets, No. 17, that’s a really important pick for the Lakers probably to use in a big trade. You’re not gonna use it on Bronny James at 17. And then they have No. 55. He could very well be gone by then.” -via Bleacher Report / May 1, 2024
