There have been a number of famous siblings following in their father’s footsteps by paving their own way to the highest level of basketball lately.
In the past we have seen Michael Jordan’s two sons succeed on the collegiate level, Doc Rivers’ son Austin, once the top ranked high school player in the country, get drafted by the New Orleans Pelicans, and now Tim Hardaway Jr, sibling of famous Heat and Golden State floor general Tim Hardaway, making an immediate impact as a rookie with the New York Knicks.
Well don’t look now, but 9 year old Lebron James Jr, who appears in his famous father’s newest Samsung commercial, is hooping it up just like his daddy and may be the next in line of famous siblings to excel on the hardwood.
It appears that “Bronny” has a real knack for stuffing the stat sheet just like his daddy, as evidence of Lebron taking a video and posting this just a few days ago on Instagram:
“Bronny went for 25-8-8 tonight. He getting better and better. Couple euro steps looking like @dwyanewade and what I like most is his unselfishness #HeGotNext #StriveForGreatness”
