Young Bronny James is one of the biggest stories of the summer as he navigates the next chapter of his basketball journey. While the draft is still a few weeks out, Bronny raised a lot of eyebrows with his latest social media post, which involved himself and his father LeBron as teammates to Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.

Bronny posted this without any words or captions and fans have been working hard to find its meaning. For some, it’s easy to assume that this is Bronny dropping a hint of his summer plans but it should be noted that James has posted these types of edits before. Back in April, for example, he posted a photo with himself and LeBron donning Team USA jerseys.

Bronny also did something similar before finishing his Freshman season at USC. In December, he went viral for posting himself, Bryce, and LeBron in Lakers jerseys, side-by-side as teammates even though it could never happen.

Anytime this happens with Bronny, it causes quite a stir among the fans. As arguably the most popular rookie in this upcoming draft, all eyes will be on James Jr., and the whole world will be talking about his NBA future come draft day.
Regarding the kid’s latest edit, it could be nothing more than Bronny sharing a photo that matches his most ambitious dreams. Even so, at the very least, this means he must be somewhat open to playing on the Mavericks if he’s fantasizing about being teammates with Luka and Kyrie.
While they didn’t win the Finals this year, they came within three games of a title and it may only take the arrival of LeBron and Bronny to help tip the scales in their favor. Even at 39 years old, LeBron has the type of impact on the court that makes everyone better, and Bronny’s arrival in the backcourt could help add some depth off the bench.
Unfortunately for the Mavericks, they are still a distant third place to land Bronny compared to the Lakers and Suns. Rich Paul has already explained that Bronny will not accept a two-way contract and he’s limited his availability to just two teams so far: the Lakers and Suns.
We know that Bronny for sure wants to join the Lakers and Suns this summer since he’s only giving them workouts out of all 30 teams. As a projected mid to late second-round pick, Bronny already won’t have a direct say in choosing his path but it’s being laid out for him already behind the scenes.
With one of their two draft picks, the Lakers are prepared to pick up Bronny with their pick, and if they somehow miss the chance then the Mavericks will no doubt consider drafting him at 58 to join one of the NBA’s best backcourts.
Only time will tell how this plays out for Bronny but his transition to the NBA is inevitable now after showing flashes of star potential at the combine. So whether it’s with the Mavericks, Lakers, or Suns, Bronny is clearly on a collision course with the King and he seems to be relishing every moment.
