LeBron James calls out Call of Duty to make a game skin for his son, Bronny<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

While it is going to stir up more controversy,\u00a0LeBron James<\/strong>\u00a0did another favor for his son. The Lakers superstar said rookie\u00a0Bronny James<\/strong>\u00a0wanted his own operator skin in the popular video game\u00a0Call of Duty<\/em>. If this happens, it would follow the trend set by NBA stars\u00a0Devin Booker<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Kevin Durant<\/strong>. Booker and Durant were previously been featured as playable characters in the game.<\/p>\n

As the latest installment,\u00a0Call of Duty: Black Ops 6<\/em>, is set to launch on October 25.\u00a0Bronny James\u00a0is already familiar with the game, having achieved success in\u00a0Call of Duty<\/em>\u00a0tournaments. This occurred during the Summer League in Las Vegas, where\u00a0he secured first place\u00a0in a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III tournament. This prompted LeBron James to ask the video game company about the skin.<\/p>\n

Bronny just said he want his own \u201cSkin\u201d. @Activision @CallofDuty talk to me.<\/p>\n

Bronny James has competed alongside popular streamers like\u00a0Sketch<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0XQV<\/strong>. As such, it has established him in the gaming world. Furthermore, his success here can\u2019t be attributed to nepotism as claimed by his critics. He is an excellent gamer.<\/p>\n

On the basketball side, James Jr. made history with his father, LeBron James, when they\u00a0played together\u00a0for the first time as a father-son duo in the NBA. They faced off against the Phoenix Suns in the Lakers\u2019 second preseason game.<\/p>\n

Opening night a possibility for Bronny James\u2019 debut, NBA insider says<\/h2>\n

While his legendary father,\u00a0LeBron James, is canvassing for a skin for him on Call of Duty, the Los Angeles Lakers are targeting the regular-season opener on October 22 for the duo to play together. Shams Charania revealed the news when he appeared on ESPN\u2019s\u00a0Get Up<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n

We\u2019re going to be seeing history very, very soon. The expectation around the Lakers is that their debut together, the first father-son duo in NBA history to play at the same time in a game, will be as soon as opening night. October 22 against the Minnesota Timberwolves at home at Crypto.com Arena from everything I\u2019m told. That is the plan, that is the hope.<\/p>\n

This is coming from\u00a0earlier reports\u00a0that indicated that Lakers head coach\u00a0JJ Redick<\/strong>\u00a0wanted the father-son duo to share the court as early as possible. In addition to that, Redick had mentioned the possibility of Bronny joining the South Bay Lakers in the G League for more playing time and development.<\/p>\n

However, this would occur later in the season as the G League season starts in November. The Lakers and their fans have a busy start to their season as they host the Minnesota Timberwolves on October 22. Soon after, games against the Phoenix Suns and Sacramento Kings follow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
