“LeBron, you gotta take some blame for that too, man. LeBron, you are the one who said that your son Bronny is better than some NBA players right now. You have helped promote and market that as well.”
“You have made it known that you want to play with your son in the NBA. And that comes with it. So don’t be mad about people because they’re talking about the fact that Bronny’s name has been taken out of some NBA mock drafts.”

LeBron James’ son still has a long way to go before he makes it into the NBA
James has often expressed his desire to play with his son in the NBA but it is not looking to happen anytime soon. Bronny James is averaging a sub-par 5.5 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists on atrocious 37.1% FG shooting this season.
But after all Bronny James is just 18 years old and he has a lot of time to get his focus straight and strive to make himself a better player and play with his father in the NBA one day.
