Being the son of an NBA legend like LeBron James comes with immense pressure, especially when following in his footsteps. Bronny James, LeBron’s son, is a prime example of this. Despite his efforts, Bronny faces constant backlash, and his time with the Lakers, along with his poor performance in the Summer League, only added to the criticism.
“Little Bronny is my nephew. Happy for him. I wish him well. I know his work ethic, and there’s a lot of storylines, good and bad, behind that. I just hope everything goes well. And I want the young fella to be happy. I kind of know what he’s going through because my son Shareef, he’s still trying,” Shaq said.
“So my wish for Bronny is to be happy. I hate the storylines; I hate the nepotism talk and all that; it doesn’t matter. Because his son and my son are best friends. I’m not gonna jeopardize their relationship just by saying some shit. He’s like a nephew to me, so I just wish him well,” he added.
Bryce James Praises Bronny James’ Recovery After Cardiac Arrest
Besides the on-court challenge, Bronny James also met a major off-court challenge due to his cardiac arrest during a workout at USC. This off-court health scare shook the James family, but Bronny has shown incredible resilience in overcoming it.
His younger brother Bryce James recently opened up about Bronny’s recovery journey during an episode of Top Class Hoops. Bryce shared admiration for how far the Lakers star has come since the incident.
“You know, it’s a great feeling just knowing that my brother, uh, the journey that he’s had just came that far from the cardiac arrest to all the difficulties that he has had in his career in college. You know, it’s amazing to see him play with his dad,” Bryce said.
The Lakers team will kick off the season with a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It’ll remain to be seen if Bronny can make the roster to play alongside his father.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield and his wife Emily have had to evacuate their home this week because of Hurricane Helene.
The hurricane hit northern Florida pretty hard, causing major flooding and power loss.
Mayfield, his wife Emily, their daughter, and their dog left their residence before the storm hit as a means of caution. Emily furnished her followers with an update on Friday.
“Baker, Koko, Fergus and I evacuated yesterday and are safe,” she said via Instagram. “Our sweet, sweet community got pummeled, but even that doesn’t compare to the people up North who took this storm head on. It’s unfathomable.”
Emily is grateful that Helene did not affect the Mayfield home but revealed she was “praying nonstop” for the people dealing with the impact while also offering tangible assistance.
“I am looking for ways to get out and tangibly help,” she added. “Please send me anything you find, and I will share the good ones.”
