Lebron James“Children seem to realize that defeating their very successful father is not easy.

The 36-year-old NBA superstar visited Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday, July 13th to promote the new movie Space Jam: A New Legacy. Innkeeper during the visit Arsenio hall asked about his 16 year old son Bronny after appearing on the cover of Sports Illustrated last month as a member of the esports organization FaZe Clan.

“Bronny plays video games all day,” said LeBron. “I mean, he loves basketball, he plays basketball, loves being a big brother to his little brother and sister. But video games are his thing.”

The athlete continued, “When he got on the cover, I thought, ‘You know I was younger than you, right?’ And then he did the research – all these kids got all these phones we didn’t have when I was growing up – he said, ‘Dad, no, you were six months older than me. Now I’m the youngest guy in the household on Sports Illustrated. ‘”
