NBA superstar and all-time great LeBron James has perhaps revealed where his next NBA destination will be.
In an interview under his Uninterrupted media platform, James said a moment he wants to have in the league is to play on the same floor as his son Bronny James.
“I want him to get to the NBA,” James said. “I’m not even going to lie. I want to be on the same — I want to be on the court with him. I think that will be an unbelievable moment.”
