Breaking News: Bronny James to Sign Multi-Year Guaranteed Contract with Los Angeles Lakers, Eclipsing Father LeBron as the NBA’s Youngest Dual-Threat Star

In a major development for the Los Angeles Lakers, 55th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft Bronny James is set to sign a multi-year guaranteed contract with the team. The news was reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic, who revealed that when the 2024-25 season kicks off, James will be an established player on the squad alongside his father, LeBron James.

While it is uncommon for second-round picks to receive guaranteed contracts, Bronny James’ agent Rich Paul has made it clear that he would not settle for anything less than a two-way deal. In an interview with Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report, Paul emphasized that his client deserved a guaranteed deal and highlighted his standout game against Oregon State during his college career as evidence of his potential on the court.

Despite a modest freshman year at USC where he averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, Bronny James will have the opportunity to develop with the Lakers and potentially see significant playing time early on. In addition to honing his skills in the NBA, he will also make history as part of the first father-son duo to compete in the league.
