Many fans have wondered what Bronny will call his father now that they are teammates.

LeBron recently spoke about the subject (via The Shop).

LeBron: "We already laid that down. He cannot call me dad in the workplace. Once we leave out of the practice facility and the gates closed, I can be dad again... He gotta call me like 2.3., or Bron, or GOAT if he wants to. It's up to him."

Bronny finished his one season of college basketball at USC with averages of 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.3 assists per contest while shooting 36.6% from the field and 26.7% from the three-point range in 25 games.

"[Bronny] can't call me dad in the workplace... He's gotta call me 2-3, or Bron, or GOAT if he wants to... Can’t be running down the court like, 'Dad, I'm open!'"
