LeBron James opens his working relationship his son, Bronny.
During a recent interview of Uninterrupted’s “The Shop” podcast. “No, he can’t; we already laid that down,” James said. “Once we leave, out of the practice facility, and the gates close, I could be ‘Dad’ again, in the car if we ride together. At home, I could be ‘Dad.’ No, he gotta call me ‘2-3’ or ‘Bron,’ or ‘GOAT’ [greatest of all time] if he wants to. It’s up to him. I mean, it’s up to him.”
The Lakers star added, “Once we leave out the private facility and the gates close, I could be dad again, in the car if we ride together, at home I could be dad.”
“We cannot be running down the court, and he’d be like, ‘Dad, push the ball up! Dad, I’m open! Dad, come on!’” LeBron said in the clip.
During a previous interview with NBA Central, Bronny opened up about what it’s like being the son of LeBron James. “It’s tough. A lot of criticism gets thrown my way, but you know, I’ve got to deal with it.”
“They don’t know what I’ve been through. But yeah, I just try to make the best of [the] opportunities that’s given to me.”
He continues: “You know I always want to end up where I’m happy the most. [My] mom has always told me you know, ‘take me where my heart wants me to be,’ and I just found happiness in what I’m doing right now, and I feel like that’s where I want myself to be at.”
