Dad's Gone from the Lakers, What's Next for Bronny? The Younger James at a Crossroads, Could Be Part of a Major NBA Trade

LeBron James appears to transcend the NBA itself. Commissioner Adam Silver announced that the league's schedule awaited LeBron's decision, which finally arrived on Friday.

James has opted to continue his career with the Philadelphia 76ers, signing a two-year, $8 million contract. This move seemingly represents his last two chances to secure another NBA championship.

While LeBron's move sent shockwaves through the NBA, questions immediately arose about his son, Bronny. He now faces two distinct paths, neither of which leads him to play alongside his father.

LeBron's heir apparent holds a guaranteed contract with the Lakers, suggesting he will begin the season with them.

However, the Lakers are still actively pursuing Jonathan Kuminga, and Bronny could potentially be included in a trade package, ultimately landing him with the Atlanta Hawks. Notably, neither of these scenarios places him with the 76ers.

Last season, Bronny averaged 2.7 points and 1.1 assists across 69 games for the Lakers.
