LeBron James has arguably been ruling the game for the past two decades. He has knitted a journey full of glory and accomplishments in his 19-year career in the league. It’ll be likely hard for many to catch up with the legacy he has created. Who will carry the baton after LeBron’s retirement? One of many names has to be LeBron James Jr. or Bronny James. On 6th October 2022, Bronny turned 18 years old.
One of the most memorable moments for a parent, whether they are a billionaire sports legend or not, is when their child turns 18. LeBron James got emotional as he posted a photo of himself and Bronny, and expressed his birthday wishes to his son.
