LeBron James is one of the biggest sports icons in the world. He is well respected among his peers. Former NFL player and Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe is very close to Lebron. Both of them are associated with KlutchSports. Moreover, Shannon has been one of the biggest advocates of LeBron James in the media.

LeBron has often talked about his wish to play alongside his oldest son Bronny James in the NBA. Bronny is currently in high school and will be a senior at Sierra Canyon next season.

Recently, Bronny James attended his prom and was spotted alongside a girl who was his prom date. As expected, the people on social media were quick to react to it.

Shannon Sharpe, who also works with FOX Sports as an Analyst, gave his views on the situation surrounding Bronny. He himself is a very respectable figure in the media world, and his response to the negativity thrown toward Bronny was adequate.

Shannon said, “It is so utterly ridiculous, People need to get a life.” He added, “Bronny can’t live his life for someone else, He has to live for him. And, far too many people live their life for other people.” Shannon’s comments are certainly right as Bronny is still young, and he doesn’t need to live according to others.

When will Bronny James be eligible to play alongside LeBron James in the NBA?

As stated earlier, Bronny James will be a senior at Siera Canyon next season. He will be eligible for getting drafted to the NBA in 2024. There is no clear indication about where Bronny will play after graduating from high school.

Upcoming NBA prospects tend to avoid playing in college. They rather go to play in the G-League or try out overseas like Jalen Green and LaMelo Ball respectively.

LeBron has won four NBA Championships and is close to breaking the all-time points scoring record as well. These are just some of his major accolades in the game. Despite being 37 years old, he had a stellar season last year on a personal level. He might have won another MVP award if his team had played well just like him. It is fair to say he is nowhere close to being done.

With LeBron James still being a part of the Los Angeles Lakers as of now, he is likely to join the team that drafts Bronny, as he’ll be a free agent at that time. If he is able to share the court with Bronny in the NBA, it will be one of the historic moments in the history of the NBA.
