We finally know which jersey number Bronny James is going to wear at Los Angeles Lakers. It is not his father’s number
Bronny James, newly signed to the Los Angeles Lakers, sparked speculation over his jersey number choice, drawing attention after his college days at USC where he honored his father with the No. 6 jersey.
Bronny was later selected as their 55th pick
Many expected him to continue this legacy, especially with the number vacant on the current Lakers roster. However, in a surprising move announced within 24 hours, Bronny decided to forge his own path. Contrary to expectations, he opted not to don the No. 6 but instead selected a completely different number, a decision that has intrigued and surprised fans and analysts alike.
WHAT NUMBER WILL BRONNY NOW WEAR?
On Friday, the Los Angeles Lakers officially announced that Bronny James will wear the No. 9 jersey, marking a significant moment in the young player’s burgeoning career and his journey to establish his own identity.
Despite inevitable scrutiny for joining the same NBA team as his father, Bronny’s choice of number has stirred excitement among Lakers fans eager to welcome him into the fold. However, lingering skepticism remains regarding LeBron James’ influence in Bronny’s recruitment.
NUMBER 9 AS A HOMAGE TO JUICE WRLD
Accusations of nepotism surrounding Bronny James’ selection as a Lakers player have become a hot topic in sports media. LeBron James has notably responded by unfollowing journalist Rachel Nichols, who criticized the decision. However, fair and respectful critique is essential in sports discourse. Despite the scrutiny, Bronny remains focused on his journey, putting in the work diligently to prove himself.
Critics often overlook Bronny’s recent recovery from a life-threatening cardiac arrest, a testament to his resilience and determination to play alongside his father. While doctors have confirmed his full recovery, his commitment to the game is truly commendable. Bronny has decided for number 9 as a homage to the late raper Juice WRLD
