With LeBron James gearing up to enter his 21st NBA season, there have been a lot of narratives about this being his last year in the league. However, he has dispelled all the rumors by averaging monster numbers and expressing his wish to play alongside his son, Bronny James, before retiring. While many anticipated this might be it for King James, his recent ad campaign with Beats by Dre has swirled a different story.
In the latest ad campaign featuring Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, LeBron alluded to his wish to play alongside his younger son Bryce James as well before he finally hangs up his boots. Following the ad release, Bryce James took to social media to send a six-word message to his followers.

Being the son of the most influential athlete in the league comes with certain perks. Both Bryce and Bronny have huge social media followings and have started getting brand deals even before stepping on the court. As a result, both of them have a net worth north of a million. The Beats by Dre’s family signing is one such example. The ad campaign features James’s entire family, including his wife Savannah and kids Bryce, Bronny, and Zhuri.

The Beats by Dre’s recent ad campaign created waves through the hoops community. The ad titled “The King & The Viking” features LeBron James alongside Erling Haaland. The clip shows Savannah James motivating the King to exceed expectations once again and prove the naysayers wrong. However, the video also hinted at LeBron possibly staying in the league for longer than many might have anticipated. In the clip, Savannah said, “Tell them you’re not done until you play with your son,” with the camera zoomed in on Bronny. She further adds, “Then do that, again,” with the camera pointed at Bryce.

Although James is turning 39 in two months, his production on court is still incredible at this age. He is still at the top of his game, averaging 28.9 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 6.8 assists. James has shown that he still has a lot left in his tank, and therefore his wish to share the court with his sons is still on the cards.
