Bronny James reacts to LeBron James trade rumors
Following Wednesday's practice, Bronny James addressed the ongoing trade rumors surrounding his father LeBron James as speculation grows over the Lakers' future plans. Bronny shared that a fan had asked him what he would do if LeBron left the team, but the former USC guard made it clear that he doesn’t pay much attention to the noise or speculation.
"Actually, one of my friends called me, talking about where, what I was going to do because they saw my dad,"Bronny said. "I didn't see it. He called me. I was like, 'Yeah, I have no idea what you're talking about.' I don't really pay attention to that stuff. There's a lot of stuff going around that I don't pay attention to."
Bronny James is a part of the Lakers' 16-player Summer League roster, which also includes sharpshooter Dalton Knecht and Julian Reese, the brother of WNBA star Angel Reese. He’s set to take the court on Saturday when the Lakers tip off their Summer League campaign against the Golden State Warriors.
