Lebron James gets real as he sits with Odell Beckham Jr., Draymond Green, Snoop Dogg and others, for an episode of HBO’s ‘The Shop.’
He talks about how he is as a parent watching his oldest son, Lebron James Jr., play basketball and he even said that he regrets giving him his name.
Via BBC News:
US comedian Jon Stewart asks the sports star about his family and how he reassures his children, especially LeBron James Jr – better known as Bronny – over expectations to live up to his success.
“They’re playing the same sport that you play better than anyone else in the world… how do you give them peace of mind that they don’t have to be you?” Stewart asked.
“I still regret giving my 14-year-old my name because of that. When I was younger, I didn’t have a dad, so my whole thing was whenever I have a kid, I’m going to do everything that this man didn’t do,” James said, adding: “It’s up to them to take their own course, whenever that time comes.”
Just imagine the pressure that the kid must have to live up to his dad’s name.
If your father was as famous as Lebron James, would it bother you to be named after him?
