His Lakers star dad LeBron made a similar statement during an interview with Spectrum in May. “First of all, congratulations to Bronny on his decision he made. I’m super proud of him, our family is proud of him,” he said. “For me personally, it’s even more special to me because it’s the first time someone out of my family to go to college. Obviously, I didn’t go to college.”

“It’s just a proud moment to see my son go to college, and he’s the first one to go college in my family. Super duper proud, super emotional, but just super duper excited and happy for his journey,” he concluded.
