    Because he could have easily gotten a max contract on several other teams, and he made it obvious he wasn’t going to stay with the Lakers if they didn’t draft his son.

      I agree that the Lakers drafted Bronny for LeBron. LeBron didn’t take a pay cut because of Bronny though. LeBron, if he wanted could have gotten a full max from the Lakers. Also Bronny is making the league minimum, not some crazy great deal.

        Being drafted onto LeBron James’s team without being that good is a great deal. He has a congenital heart defect and 10 teams wanted him to work out for them. Do the math.
