According to a report from The Athletic Shams, Bronny James will sign a multi-year rookie guarantee contract with the Lakers, which instantly sparked heated discussions.
At the moment, the details of this rookie contract have not been revealed, and normally, the first-round rookie gets a four-year contract with a team option for the second two years. The second-round pick has the right to sign a guaranteed contract with the team for up to three years, and the annual salary for the first year is equivalent to the base salary of an NBA player.
Bronny was selected by the Lakers with the No. 55 pick in this year's draft, and the first father and son to play on the same team in NBA history were born.
After getting a multi-year contract with the Lakers, Bronny will also start his career with the Lakers. However, Bronny's multi-year rookie security contract has also sparked heated discussions, and many fans ridiculed him as the number one relation.
Indeed, Bronny averaged just 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 19 minutes per game in college last season. It's hard to get a foothold in the NBA with such a performance. Can Brownie be slapped in the face and questioned? See.
