The 76ers could acquire Bronny James by sending the Lakers a future second-round pick and absorbing his salary into their $2.3 million trade exception, but there is currently no plan or request for him to join LeBron James in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

The Philadelphia 76ers would have a straightforward path to acquiring Bronny James from the Los Angeles Lakers, but there is currently no plan for him to follow his father to Philadelphia.<\/p>\n


\n \"Bronny
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

\n Position
\n PG, SG\n <\/p>\n

\n Age
\n 21\n <\/p>\n

\n Height
\n 188 cm\n <\/p>\n

\n Weight
\n 95 kg\n <\/p>\n

\n Birth place
\n Akron, United States of America\n <\/p>\n

According to NBA reporter Evan Sidery<\/a>, the Sixers could offer the Lakers a future second-round pick and absorb Bronny’s minimum salary into their available $2.3 million trade exception.<\/p>\n

That framework would allow Philadelphia to complete the deal without sending a player back to Los Angeles, should LeBron James express interest in reuniting with his son.<\/p>\n

LeBron and Bronny are not a package deal <\/p>\n

Despite the simple financial pathway, Rich Paul has played down the possibility of another father-son reunion.<\/p>\n

“As for the impact of LeBron James’ decision on his son Bronny James, Rich Paul, the agent for both, tells ESPN that ‘they are not a package deal,’ and there’s no current plan or request for Bronny James to join his father in Philly,” ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The clarification indicates that LeBron’s decision to join the 76ers was made independently of Bronny’s situation and that Philadelphia has not asked the Lakers about acquiring the young guard.<\/p>\n

Lakers remain committed to Bronny <\/p>\n

The Lakers recently guaranteed Bronny’s $2.29 million salary for the 2026-27 season.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old initially signed a four-year, $7.89 million contract after Los Angeles selected him with the No. 55 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.<\/p>\n

Shelburne also noted that members of the Lakers’ staff have a fondness for Bronny, suggesting the organization continues to view him as a developmental player rather than merely a connection to LeBron.<\/p>\n

Bronny appeared in 42 games last season while averaging fewer than nine minutes per contest, receiving most of his opportunities in a limited reserve role.<\/p>\n

LeBron and Bronny made NBA history with the Lakers by becoming the league’s first father-son teammates.<\/p>\n
