Bronny focussed on basketball

Having LeBron as a father will be very helpful for Bronny. James can give him advice and help him stay grounded while he works to achieve his goals. Furthermore, James will tell him to stay focused on his goals and not pay attention to what the rest of the world has to say about him. The most important thing for Bronny is to play his own game and not pay attention to comparisons.
