Despite his own actions playing no real role in any of it, Bronny James was subject to endless discourse and drama in his rookie season.<\/p>\n
But whether Stephen A. Smith likes it or not, James is reflecting fondly on his history-making year on the Lakers alongside his father LeBron.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a blessing,\u201d Bronny said, according to FOX Sports. \u201cBeing able to learn from him, not only as a player, but as a dad. It\u2019s a different type of relationship. I try to take full advantage of it because it\u2019s something that a lot of people can\u2019t have. It was an amazing experience for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
LeBron and Bronny became the NBA\u2019s first-ever father-son duo this season \u2014 but it\u2019s unclear whether the 40-year-old will return for a 23rd season in the league. He has a $52.6 million player option that he could opt into to return next season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m looking forward to learning more from him, if he\u2019s still here or not, either way,\u201d Bronny said. \u201cBut I\u2019m just looking forward to it.\u201d<\/p>\n
While LeBron, a four-time champion, MVP and the NBA\u2019s all-time leading scorer, is arguably the greatest player of all time, nothing stacks up to what he accomplished this season playing alongside his son.<\/p>\n
\u201cNumber one, for sure,\u201d James said about where the feat stacks up in his accomplishments. \u201cThat\u2019s easy. It is not even close. To be able to play the game that I love and to be able to be along with my son this whole year has been one of the most gratifying, satisfying journeys I\u2019ve ever been on.\u201d<\/p>\n
While neither would trade the experience for anything, pressure was certainly a factor for the name-bearing son of one of the greatest athletes ever.<\/p>\n
Bronny suffered cardiac arrest during a practice ahead of his freshman season at USC and went on to average just 4.8 points before being drafted 55th by the Lakers.<\/p>\n
His rush into the NBA drew plenty of eyes \u2014 and criticism.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am pleading with LeBron James as a father: Stop this. Stop this. We all know that Bronny James is in the NBA because of his dad,\u201d Smith said in January on ESPN\u2019s \u201cFirst Take.\u201d<\/p>\n
LeBron rushed to his son\u2019s defense as the argument with Smith took the league and internet by storm.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was under a lot of pressure,\u201d Bronny said. \u201cIt was getting to me a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n
With all the nepotism talk, Bronny, who averaged 21.9 points per game for the Lakers\u2019 G League affiliate, just wants to prove that he belongs in the NBA.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s all I\u2019ve been trying to prove.\u201d<\/p>\n
With his first season now in the books, that\u2019s what he\u2019ll continue to work toward.<\/p>\n
\u201cKeeping my head down and working,\u201d Bronny said. \u201cWorking is a distraction from everything. I love just coming into the gym and working and talking to my coaches and watching film. All of the stuff that can help me get better every day. It\u2019s a distraction from all of that stuff. So, just going to continue to do that and see where it takes me. It\u2019s going good so far.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
