“Cannot call me ‘Dad’ in the workplace.” Like Bronny James did not already have enough things to worry about this summer, Daddy James gave him an added concern with his stern warning.

Yes, the rookie will have to break his nineteen-year-old habit of referring to LeBron as his ‘Dad’ while they are in a professional setting.

And this might be a harder transition for the kid than people would think.

So, how can Bronny overcome this dilemma?

Well, veteran Insider Zach Lowe proposed a unique solution, “How about Bronny goes the other way and kind of needles him (LeBron) a little bit. How about Old Timer, Old Man ‘Pass me the ball old man.’

Can play the age card a little bit.”

Heading into the next season nearing the age of 40, LeBron currently holds the title of the oldest player in the league.

And now that he has prohibited Bronny from calling him ‘Dad’ while they are at work, the younger James could turn the tables on his father using nicknames targeting his age.

A bold move for a rookie!

However, LeBron has laid out several options that Bronny could use, “He got to call me like, ‘2-3’ or ‘Bron’, or you know, ‘GOAT’ if he wants to. It’s up to him.”

And when the father-son duo is out of the practice facility, heading home after a log day’s work, King James is ready to be called ‘Dad’ again.

Considering LeBron’s multiple conditions, ESPN reporter Malika Andrews claimed on NBA Today that Bronny would likely slip up at least once or twice.

But Lowe’s advice could really work for the rookie as something similar has happened with LeBron in the past.

When a Houston Rockets’ star made LeBron James “Feel Old as Cr*p”

Maybe, the insider’s advice stems from the interaction that took place between LeBron and Rockets’ youngster Jabari Smith Jr. last year.

While Smith was in his rookie season and faced King James for the first time, he let him into a shocking insight during the game, “Hey, you played against my dad your first NBA game ever.” Yes, when LBJ made his debut in 2003, Jabari Smith Sr. was part of that Sacramento Kings roster.

Taken aback by the information, James responded, “Really? Why you do that to me?” and the rookie doubled down asking him, “You feel old, don’t you?” bursting out laughing. Sure enough, James addressed the interaction during the post-game interview and said, “Made me feel old as cr*p too.”

Well, Bronny could use a similar tactic to solve his dilemma because he is currently the same age as Jabari during that interaction with Daddy James. Do you think this will work for the Lakers rookie?
