LeBron James and Bronny James became the first-ever father and son-duo to be in the NBA at the same time. 
The Lakers have chosen Bronny for the 2024 Draft.
The Los Angeles Lakers selected Bronny James with the 55th pick of the NBA draft Thursday, a major step in Lakers star LeBron James’s long-held dream of teaming up with his eldest son in the NBA.
For the 19-year-old James, who spent one season at the University of Southern California, the selection in the second round of the draft completes a remarkable comeback from a sudden cardiac arrest he suffered during a July 2023 practice with the Trojans. Shortly after the incident, James’s family announced he would pursue a return to basketball after consulting with several doctors, and he made his USC debut in December.
