LeBron James told the media that Bronny James has already moved out of their mansion after the Los Angeles Lakers’ 140-126 home win against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday.
The 40-year-old forward said that while he hasn’t talked to Bronny as much as before, he is happy to see his eldest son’s growth as a professional and as a person.
“It’s been great to see, to watch,” LeBron said via Spectrum Sportsnet. “He’s still young. I mean, obviously, just turned 21 not too long ago, and he’s still learning. Still getting better with each and every rep. I think he’s enjoying the process. I think you can obviously ask him more than me.”
“He’s not a resident anymore, so we don’t talk as much,” he added. “He has his own place.”
Los Angeles Lakers News: LeBron James pushes back on fans who question his fit with the team
Before LeBron James suited up yesterday, many questioned how he would fit alongside Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves. Those questions were put to rest, as the Los Angeles Lakers forward had 11 points and 12 assists on 4-for-7 shooting from the field across 30 minutes of action.
“What’s wrong with these people out here? I could fit in right away with anybody. So, just watching the guys, their first 14 games that I missed, the first 14, just watching them and seeing, just, I was just putting myself in position, while I was watching the games of how I can help the team and how I could be successful to help those guys,” James said via Lakers Nation.
“I still, you know, able to gain a lot of eyes when I’m driving the ball or have the ball, things of that nature. And I had a big fella down there, big five (Deandre Ayton) down there, and my guy Gabe (Vincent), right here obviously, and Jake (LaRavia), our second team, we went out there and, and kind of pushed the lead up, that was good,” he added.
