When the No. 55 draft pick was completed this Friday at the NBA Draft, a sense of exhilaration swept the fans. History books had a minor update, of course. Two James, a father-son duo, will link up together in NBA history for the first time! LeBron James and his son, Bronny James, will take to the court together this NBA season, not as spectators but as players! Recognizing this feat, Floyd Mayweather heaped praise on the James family for an achievement that might not be repeated.

The LA Lakers will boast of having the father-son James duo in their ranks this year as they look to add their first championship since 2020. Moreover, it will be a delight to see them in sync. However, a great deal of effort went into making this a reality, as highlighted by the American boxer. Mayweather, 47, turned to his Instagram handle and penned a heartfelt post about the James family.

‘Money’ wrote, “Making Black history look great! I love seeing powerful Black men like @kingjames excelling in all areas while providing us all a courtside view of how to succeed by playing chess not checkers. @bronny you deserve all the success and praise as you’ve worked hard and have earned what God has intended for you. And last but absolutely not least all respect is due to @kingjames Queen @mrs_savannahrj for being a strong, powerful supportive Wife and Mother. Congratulations and Keep shining, James Family!”
