Bronny James — son of NBA superstar LeBron James — is a Los Angeles Laker … being selected with the 55th pick in the 2024 Draft.

This makes LeBron and Bronny the first-ever father-son duo in NBA history — and they’re on the same team.

The big moment went down minutes ago … with league deputy commissioner Mark Tatum taking the dais at ESPN’s Seaport District Studios in Manhattan to announce the move.

19-year-old Bronny’s NBA future has been the biggest topic leading up to this year’s draft … and experts were undecided on when — or if — his name would be called.

Bronny was a four-star prospect out of Sierra Canyon School in California … and signed to play at the collegiate level for the USC Trojans.

He suffered cardiac arrest in July 2023 … which was the result of a congenital heart defect.

After taking a bit of time to recover, Bronny rejoined his teammates and made 25 appearances in the 2023-24 season … averaging just under five points and three rebounds and more than two assists a game.

Bronny impressed at the combine earlier this year … and many praised his shooting and defense.

Now that we know Bronny’s destination, this pretty much guarantees LeBron is staying put with L.A. … as he stated for years it was his dream to play alongside his son in the NBA.

He still technically could opt out of his current contract and become a free agent … but come on, he ain’t passing up on this!!
