Wait I thought he wanted to be a video game developer?

Did LeBron learn nothing from Space Jam: A New Legacy?

The ultimate nepo baby…

Isn't so much even the Nepo part, it was the tears as if he accomplished something or that it was a surprise.

****ing laughable.

c'mon man, that feeling when you realise you don't need pocket money anymore is pretty overwhelming

Dude averaged 3.6 points a game last year in something 36% shooting. Pretty sure I might be able to do that

Daddy got him $8m, omg. Father of the Year locked up

He's a second-round pick. Does LA pickup his option if Lebron opts out or retires?

He’s got a 3 year guaranteed contract

He also basically denied that nepotism was involved as the Lakers are too professional to engage in it etc

There's a case for him given this is what most 2nd round draft pick contracts will look like under the current CBA

He’s got a 3 year guaranteed contract

Thanks for the clarification.

It’s a standard 2nd round contract with 3 years guaranteed plus a team option for the 4th

Fun fact: bigger than the Joker’s rookie deal

2nd round picks contracts aren't guaranteed past the first year.

Who said that?

His is guaranteed for first 2 years and for $1.3 million in year 3

He also had a heart attack brother.

To take the devil's advocate position, he did have to overcome the cardiac arrest health scare and work hard to even get himself to this position.

It's not really his fault that he's not actually much good.

Those would have been undraftable red flags for anyone else.

 

[andruid]

Have I shared this meme here?

What the cardiac arrest part, or the not being good?

Yes to both, but being good would be the required part, certainly.

Bronny's going to get the big media spotlight with LeBron, the photo ops, even maybe a starting spot to facilitate that early in the season.

After that honeymoon ends, and it turns out the Lakers are ass, and Bronny didn't help address any of what they actually need, he's going straight to Thannasis 12th man on the bench mode, imo.

Can they send him to the G league for a spell under his contract?

Kid really does need to play

 

[shortpitched713]

Don't know.

Maybe LeBron can help make him better, by practicing with him.
