Bronny James Signs Historic Rookie Contract with Lakers

Posted : 04 July 2024

Bronny James officially signed a lucrative four-year, $7.9 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, coinciding with his father LeBron James' contract extension on the same day. This historic agreement ensures the first-ever father-son duo in NBA history will play together for the Lakers in the upcoming season. Bronny's rookie deal starts at $1,157,143 for the 2024-25 season and increases annually, culminating in a team option worth $2,486,955 for the 2027-28 season.

 

The Lakers formally announced the signings of Bronny James and Dalton Knecht, the team's No. 17 pick in this year's draft, although specific financial terms were not disclosed by the organization. Bronny, selected by the Lakers with the No. 55 pick, enters the team amid high expectations despite a college career at USC interrupted by a heart procedure, which impacted his development but did not dampen his potential.

 

Rob Pelinka, Lakers' vice president of basketball operations and general manager, praised Bronny James for his defensive capabilities and overall basketball instincts, highlighting his role in the team's revamped player development strategy. Newly appointed Lakers coach JJ Redick expressed confidence in Bronny's skills, labeling him as a key focus of their comprehensive player development program aimed at nurturing his potential into that of a standout NBA player.
