In a recent interview with ESPN, LeBron James proudly shared insights about his son, Bronny James, who recently made headlines by joining the Los Angeles Lakers.
This historic moment marks the first time a father-son duo will play on the same NBA team, sparking significant media attention and a fair share of criticism.
Reflecting on his son’s mindset, LeBron noted a stark contrast between his own early career experiences and Bronny’s current approach. “People don’t really get Bronny,” LeBron explained.
“He genuinely doesn’t care. When I started, I wanted people to like me, and negative comments did get to me. But Bronny? He doesn’t give a f**k.”
Bronny’s signing with the Lakers has stirred conversations not only due to the unique father-son dynamic but also accusations of nepotism. However, LeBron emphasized his son’s unbothered attitude towards such criticisms.
“He’s like the coolest. He’s like the complete opposite of his dad. His dad will say something. Bronny does not care. … Everything that’s being said about him, he really does not care.”
