LeBron James and Bronny's Appearance at USC Game

LeBron James made headlines when he attended his son Bronny's first game at USC. The league is bracing for the power play that LeBron might use to get his son on the same team as him, even if it's just for a game. The Lakers might sign Bronny to a two-way or G League deal, while other teams would only consider it to possibly curry favor with LeBron. The idea of a second-generation player playing with their parent is unprecedented, and LeBron's status and longevity make it a possibility. The ownership potential of LeBron adds intrigue, as it would be a significant moment in league history. Overall, having LeBron as an owner in a city like Vegas would be a major asset for the NBA.
