The NBA draft takes place this week and many fans will be eager to find out where LeBron James’ son Bronny ends up.<\/b><\/p>\n
The first-round draft starts on Wednesday, 26 June, with the second round on Thursday 27. <\/p>\n
One common theory is that Bronny could be picked by the Los Angeles Lakers to play alongside his father for what is predicted to be LeBron’s final year on-court.<\/p>\n
The 19-year-old has completed his first year of college basketball with the University of Southern California Trojans, where he averaged 4.8 points and 2.1 assists per game. <\/p>\n
Unlike his father, who stands at 6ft 9in and is the NBA’s leading all-time scorer, Bronny is 6ft 1in and is more of a defensive player.<\/p>\n
However, being the son of a four-time NBA champion and four-time Most Valuable Player brings extra attention along with it. Bronny has 7.7 million Instagram followers and pundits have followed his journey for years.<\/p>\n
Despite that, his path has not been entirely smooth. Bronny had a cardiac arrest in training last July<\/a>, meaning he was only cleared to return to basketball last November<\/a>, having been found to have a congenital heart defect. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
