You can be sure that LeBron, Bronny, and the Lakers are going to be the butt of a lot of jokes from here on out, and that they will definitely give birth to more than a few new memes moving forward.
Be that as it may, the Jameses know what they’re doing here. They know full well what they’ve gotten themselves into, and as always, they will now be set to prove the naysayers and the critics wrong.
Bronny likely won’t be a star in the NBA, but the fact that he will be playing alongside his father is a historic achievement on its own.
