LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are already in offseason mode after failing to advance deeper into the 2025 NBA playoffs.

The Lakers suffered a first-round exit at the hands of the Minnesota Timberwolves, winning just one game in the series despite having both LeBron James and Luka Doncic leading the way.

It wasn't due to a lack of trying on the Lakers forward's part, though. After all, even at 40 years old, James averaged 25.4 points, 9.0 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 2.0 steals and 1.8 blocks per game in the Timberwolves series.

While it's quite disappointing that the Lakers are no longer competing for the title this 2025, LeBron James still has a reason to be happy about amid his offseason.

After all, not only is he able to witness his wife Savannah James make waves in both fashion and business, but he also recently got to see his son graduate from high school.

Bryce James, the second son of LeBron James, graduated from Sierra Canyon High School on Thursday. His mother posted about the major personal milestone on Friday, which LeBron James also shared on his Instagram Stories.

The Lakers superstar also shared another tribute for his son from SportsCenter, further highlighting how happy he is to see his son graduate.

Bryce James is now set to play college basketball with the Arizona Wildcats after committing to the program last January.

LeBron James, for his part, has always been supportive of his son. Sure enough, fans can expect him to keep cheering for Bryce James as the youngster also tries to make it to the NBA like his father and brother.
