Carrying on the family’s name, young Bronny James has already showed the world what he is capable of. Just like his father LeBron James, Bronny is a young star in the world of basketball. Additionally, he has always received the best possible support from his father. The 37-year-old legend firmly believes that his son is destined for greatness in the NBA; and with good reason. Following another fantastic outing, James Jr. was showered with praise again.
Having featured in the league for nearly two decades now, you’d assume LeBron James will soon be passing the torch to the next generation. And although the 18-time All-Star is still in the form of his life, his son Bronny continues to prove himself.

Recently, 17-year-old Bronny took part in a school level exhibition encounter. It was a high octane Strive for Greatness vs Meanstreets game, and James’ young prodigy did not fail to stamp his authority.
On the night, he struck gold with 18 points and 7 rebounds. As LeBron’s former Cavaliers teammate Kevin Love recently stated, it would be an absolute dream come true, if the King and his heir step foot on court together.

Naturally proud of his son’s performance, James took to Instagram to provide a defining statement. He first claimed, “We just working! That’s all.” The 4-time NBA champion was in fact watching the game side-by-side, along with the Nets vs Celtics battle.
Following this, he added a strong six word message for Bronny, stating “Earned not given in our household.” In spite of his skill, it was a clear message from the experienced campaigner himself, to keep working in order to sustain his position.
