Bronny James chose not to be present at the second round of the NBA draft 2024, which took place at the ESPN studios in New York City on Thursday.<\/p>\n

NBA enthusiasts were unable to witness James rejoicing with his loved ones after being selected as the 55th pick by the Los Angeles Lakers. It was not until his younger sibling Bryce uploaded a clip on social media that they got to see the celebration.<\/p>\n

Bronny James was seated on a sofa watching the ESPN telecast when his selection was announced. He donned a Lakers cap that was nearby, leading to an eruption of cheers in the room.<\/p>\n

Bronny James is now set to partner with his dad, LeBron James, in the Lakers team in the upcoming season, provided LeBron, who is 39, uses his player option for the 2024-25 NBA season or agrees to a long-term contract extension with Los Angeles. This possibility has increased with the Lakers\u2019 decision to draft his eldest son.<\/p>\n

LeBron has often talked about the possibility of playing alongside Bronny in the NBA. Now, it’s Bronny’s turn to focus on improving his skills and securing a place in the Lakers’ active roster, aiming to become the first father-son duo to play together in an NBA match.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
