On June 28, Beijing time, the Lakers selected James' son Bronny with the No. 55 pick in the draft. In doing so, James and Bronny will become the first father-son duo in NBA history to play together on the same team, and James will make history again. The Lakers, on the other hand, almost locked up the rest of James' career at a very low price. They used a dispensable No. 55 pick to make James' contract extension even more certain.

Before the Lakers drafted Bronny, Rich Paul's camp released a lot of news. For example, I don't want a team other than the Lakers to draft Bronny, otherwise he will go to Australia to play. And Bronny doesn't want to be drafted, and so on. But in the end, the Lakers selected Bronny with the inconsequential No. 55 pick. Although Lakers general manager Pelinka complimented in an interview, saying that Bronny got today's opportunity through hard work, he is not a shortcut person. But everyone can see that the people in it are sophisticated.

Especially after taking Bronny, the Lakers can almost say that they are 100% locked up for the rest of James' career. According to previous reports, James is highly likely to jump out of his current contract and seek a three-year salary cap. And the Lakers are also going all out, hoping to sign a three-year, $164 million maximum salary extension contract with James. If there was a little bit of variability in James' contract extension before, then after Bronny joined the Lakers, this little bit of variables has also disappeared.

Perhaps this is the biggest appeal of the Lakers in selecting Bronny. Maybe in some inconsequential games or garbage time, the Lakers will arrange for James and Bronny to play at the same time to create a sensational media effect. But in a real game, Brownie should only be waving a towel off the pitch to cheer for his father.
