A dad, by the way, who is a spotlight whore?

They are father and son. I don't know what type of question this is.

This is like the ultimate gift for a family.

The question relates to most children, esp teenagers/20's, not wanting to live in the shadow of their parents. Sure, Lebron would want it.

We not talking “Most” children. Everyone in the basketball world lives in the shadow of Lebron. There is no hype machine around Bronny. Even before this cardiac event everything was tempered down and controlled. They as a family they have access to the best family and sports phycologists to figure it out and perhaps make it as nice as can be. Full time publicists to control at best media. Bronny has not made any inflammatory statements or proclamations even in high school to warrant the kind of attention the son of one the greatest current generational players to have graced the court. Fact is the younger son Bryce might be the better player. Rumored at 16 to be 6’6 as a junior in High School and yet to fill out. Lebrons wife is 5-7 so the genes are about right. She was reported to be a good athlete but obviously lacks the hight to create super tall offspring.

To wrap up, I think the James family has done a great job letting these kids play a sport its highly unlikley they will exceed or come close to Lebron. From the way outside it appears to be temmpered down and at the end of the day the biggest issue for the family is the kids find their own lot in life and feel content with who they are. How they get there is way beyond fans scope to even be critical of. Lebron was a star in highschool for goodness sake. No human could have been fully prepared for what happened to him but to his credit he came up in a time of social media, excess transparency and seems to have kept his **** together off the court over two decades.
