Los Angeles Lakers fans were on pins and needles waiting for the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft.
After weeks of speculation that the team was going to pair Bronny James with his father, the rubber was about to meet the road, and the Lakers were going to be faced with a late second-round pick.
When the time came to make their selection, the Lakers did go through with the pick, taking Bronny to solidify the rumors leading up to this event.
This was an emotional moment for the entire family, but Bronny seemed to fully understand what happened when the pick was officially announced.
In a video shared by NBA Central on Twitter, a camera panned to Bronny, who was crying and excited about what’s to come.

His father is solidified as one of the best players in NBA history, with some fans analysts believing that he is the greatest of all-time.
LeBron’s brilliance will not soon be forgotten, but it also puts a large amount of pressure on Bronny to succeed.
Having a dad with that amount of status in a particular sport is a lot to live up to, and while he deals with that weight on a daily basis, for now, Bronny is just focusing on what’s ahead.
He is now a member of the Lakers and will have an opportunity to help this team grow and develop moving forward, hoping to be a vital piece that brings them on a deep postseason run.
