What channel is Los Angeles Lakers and Bronny James vs. Sacramento Kings game on today? | Free live stream, time, TV, channel for NBA Summer League matchupFILE - Southern California's Bronny James brings the ball up the court during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game against Washington in the first round of the Pac-12 tournament Wednesday, March 13, 2024, in Las Vegas. It’s unclear where the son of NBA great LeBron James might land in this month’s NBA draft.
LeBron and Bronny — LeBron James Jr., that is — would be the first father and son to play in the NBA at the same time, let alone on the same team. If LeBron Sr. picks up his $51.4 million player option for next season this week, he would guarantee he’ll get to take his son to work in the fall. With their two major moves this week, the Lakers have made it clear they’re determined to stick with James as their centerpiece and leader through his record-tying 22nd NBA season this fall and beyond.
Pelinka and the Lakers scouted Bronny James extensively, and he performed solidly at the pre-draft camp and again in a workout at the Lakers’ training complex, which was followed by a meeting with Pelinka. Pelinka said he never even asked Bronny what he thought about the potential pressure of playing alongside his father — something that even LeBron has said Bronny wasn’t necessarily eager to do.
James could pick up his option for 2024-25, or he could sign a new extension for even more money. He could get a maximum three-year, $162 million deal that would give him the longest career in NBA history if he played out the contract. “In my mind, I thought there’s no way a player that skilled would be available to us ,” Pelinka said.
