Lakers Teammate Tells LeBron James: “This Is Off Family Business” After He Sets Rule for Son and Teammate Bronny James.
The Los Angeles Lakers are about to embark on a historic season with LeBron James and his son, Bronny James, set to play together as teammates. However, the anticipation has come with some interesting dynamics on the court. LeBron recently revealed that Bronny would not be allowed to call him “Dad” during games or practices, aiming to maintain a professional atmosphere between the two while they’re in the heat of competition.
But not everyone on the Lakers roster is on board with this rule. According to sources close to the team, one of LeBron’s teammates reportedly told him, “This is off family business,” expressing concerns that the father-son relationship might create unnecessary complications or distractions within the team.
The unnamed teammate’s comment highlights the potential challenges that could arise as LeBron and Bronny navigate this unprecedented situation. While LeBron is focused on keeping things strictly professional on the court, other players are keenly aware of the unique pressures and attention this father-son duo will bring to the team dynamic.
LeBron’s decision to enforce the rule is part of his broader strategy to ensure that his son earns his place on the team based on merit, not family ties. Yet, it’s clear that the presence of both Jameses on the Lakers will require some adjustments for everyone involved.
As the Lakers prepare for their first preseason game on October 4, the team’s ability to manage this situation will be under intense scrutiny. Whether this new dynamic will strengthen or complicate the Lakers’ quest for a championship remains to be seen.
