Anybody that decides to attend home games for the USC Trojans in the upcoming season know that they'll have a pretty good chance at spotting Lakers superstar LeBron James along with some of his family in the crowd. Seeing that Galen Center is not too far from Crypto.com Arena, it makes things very convenient for LeBron to watch his oldest son Bronny play multiple times in his freshman year at USC.

Bronny had reportedly been mulling over his top three college for some time (Ohio State, Oregon, USC) but ultimately chose to stay local and suit up for the Trojans after his senior season at Sierra Canyon High School. It feels like he grows in popularity every day as he is among the top NIL earners among people his age and he has appeared in Nike and Beats commercials just to name a few over the past couple of months.

And of course, even though everybody is looking to seeing the Young Prince show the world what he's made of at the college level, fans cannot help but look ahead to the possibility that Bronny declares for the draft once his first season at USC comes to a conclusion. 

Most experts are sold on this happening and a recent ESPN mock draft slated him to go number 17 to the Atlanta Hawks. Once LeBron caught wind of this headline, he immediately took to Instagram to share his reaction and support.

“Wellllll ATL shawty the #JamesGang will be pulling up!” LeBron James on Instagram after Bronny James landed with the Atlanta Hawks in a recent 2024 mock draft"

We are definitely going to appreciate Bronny while we have him!
