Bronny replied to the user's question sarcastically as he dribbled the ball in his hands. Twitter users reacted to the clip shared online, commenting with memes and GIFs of LeBron James reacting after watching the Instagram live. Many Steph Curry fans reacted to the clip, commenting with Curry's stats and how he is the best shooter in NBA history. James also reacted to Bronny's post by commenting with multiple laughing emojis.
A few weeks ago, Bronny has named five favourite NBA players except LeBron James. Bronny has chosen Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard, James Harden, Kevin Durant and Anthony Davis. He later went back and commented about Kawhi Leonard, who he had wanted to include on the list. Though many people agreed with Bronny's list, some fans wanted Steph Curry on the list. Some fans even claimed that Bronny had not included Curry as he was James' rival.

People react to Bronny James' answer to the question about Bronny James father
Bronny, who is already considered one of the future NBA prospects, is often compared to LeBron James. In an interview last month, ESPN's national recruiting director Paul Biancardi had pointed out the similarities between Bronny and James' game. He stated that like James, Bronny could create a big impact with his 'unselfishness' on the court.
As per reports, Bronny is already better at shooting than James was when he was fifteen. James has also often posted about Bronny's game on his Instagram after Sierra Canon won a game. In February, Bronny's high school team won the CIF Southern Section Division Championship, which LeBron posted about on Instagram.
