The Los Angeles Lakers’ star progress in the G League has not gone unnoticed. Now he is winning some new ‘important’ fans
Bronny James, LeBron James’ son, is turning heads with his recent performances. Drafted in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft, Bronny initially struggled to adjust to the big leap. This pushed the Lakers to assignment him with the Lakers’ G League affiliate for further development.
Now, Bronny appears to be finding his stride, averaging an impressive 20.7 points per game in his last three outings. His recent form has sparked praise from none other than sports journalist Kayla Nicole, the ex-girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
Nicole shared Bronny’s stats on Instagram with the caption, “Y’all ain’t talkin’ bout nothing,” highlighting her belief in the young guard’s talent.
This marks the second time in a matter of days that Nicole has cheered on Bronny. Following his stellar 30-point game on December 19, she posted, “LET HIM COOK,” further fueling the hype surrounding the rising star. Bronny’s popularity extends beyond the court as well, with Lakers jersey sales tied to his name bringing in a staggering $50 million.
Kayla Nicole, who previously dated Kelce from 2017 to 2022, has kept a low profile regarding her romantic life since their split. Their relationship ended amid rumors of Kelce being overly frugal, allegations that were later dismissed by both parties. Meanwhile, Kelce has moved on and is now dating music sensation Taylor Swift, with their relationship making headlines since August 2023. Kelce, a three-time Super Bowl champion, continues to enjoy success on and off the field.
