LeBron James clearly passed his basketball ability onto his oldest son, but that isn’t all Bronny got from his old man. The sense of humor is there, too.
Bronny James answered some questions during an Instagram live session on Thursday, and one follower asked him who his father is. It was probably a sarcastic question, but the response made it worthwhile. Without hesitation, Bronny said his dad is Stephen Curry. The 15-year-old then hit a shot that would have made his dad(s) proud.
Bronny’s actual father, of course, squared off against Curry in the NBA Finals four consecutive years from 2015-18. The Golden State Warriors beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in three of those series. Of all the players in the NBA for Bronny to call his dad, we can’t imagine a more savage response than that.
Of course, LeBron and Bronny are always messing with each other. LeBron recently tried to embarrass Bronny like any good dad should during an Instagram live event, so this is just the latest chapter in the friendly father-son rivalry.
