Bronny James Signs $7.9 Million Contract

The terms of Bronny's contract have been revealed...

From ESPN
Bronny James signed a four-year, $7.9 million contract with the Lakers on Wednesday, a league source told ESPN, reaching his rookie deal on the same day LeBron James agreed to an extension with the team and ensured the first father-son duo in NBA history will play for the purple and gold next season.
Bronny James' contract begins at $1,157,143 in 2024-25 and progresses to $1,955,377 the following year, $2,296,271 in 2026-27 and $2,486,955 for a team option in 2027-28, sources told ESPN.
James averaged 4.8 points on 36.6% shooting (26.7% from 3), 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 19.3 minutes at USC after undergoing a heart procedure last summer. He said the nearly five-month layoff because of the medical issue affected his development.

Just because a doctor passed his exam does not mean attack want happen again.
Fans and none fans will view the game just to watch them play together. I wish him the best.

This is how you set your child up for success. I hope he continues to thrive. Congrats to the James family.

One year, maybe two with his dad, injury and ride the bench for another year with injury and cash out during year 4. He will be about 24 then. He will be a millionaire with plenty of endorsement money and still may go to college.
