Amid retirement rumors, LeBron James has shared a heartwarming video to wish his son, Bronny James, on his 21st birthday. James shared a combination of two videos – one showing his sons practicing basketball when they were kids, and another showing Bronny playing professionally.
James captioned the post, “Man o man where do I start! These 2 videos simply speak for themselves. From day 1 you’ve always set out goals and have accomplished them because you’ve always been driven! To be able to witness it throughout your journey has been nothing short of amazing!”
“Can’t believe you’re 21 years old man!” James added. “A Young, A Young MAN!! Keep inspiring, keep leading the next generation and most important keep being YOU!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRONNY! LOVE YOU MAN!!”
Bronny is a professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He is a consensus four-star recruit who was named a McDonald’s All-American as a senior in high school in 2023.

The phrase is a reference to James’ infamous 2010 ESPN special, ‘The Decision,’ when he announced his departure from the Cleveland Cavaliers to join the Miami Heat. Many could not help but wonder if James was hinting at his retirement with the new post. It is, however, also possible that James might launch a new business venture, and the post was simply a marketing move.
