"I like the weather out here" - Bronny James drops massive hint about his next move as dad LeBron James continues to battle for playoff spot

Bronny James might have dropped a massive hint about his next move as his father LeBron James continues to battle for a playoff spot. People are waiting for Bronny's next step, which is likely to be playing college basketball next season.

In an interview with USA Today ahead of this year's Nike Hoop Summit in Portland, the 18-year-old guard was asked about his future plans. He was mum about the school he will be committing to while also discussing the recruitment process made by his peers.

"It's fun times," Bronny said. "It's good to joke with them. Talking to them, talking to coaches, it's good to know that they want me there with them. But at the end of the day it's my decision, and I need to make the right one for me."

According to 247 Sports, Bronny James has received offers from Memphis, Ohio State and USC. He has also been linked to Oregon, and being in Portland, he was asked about the possibility of playing there in his freshman year.

"It's always nice to be here," James said. "It's a nice city. I like the weather out here, gloomy rain-type weather. It's nice to be here with all the guys."

USA Today's Lindsay Schnell reported that there's speculation regarding James' decision on where to play college basketball. He could even make the announcement on Saturday after the Hoop Summit game.

LeBron James is busy helping the LA Lakers battle to make the NBA playoffs. The Lakers are coming off a 121-107 win over the Phoenix Suns on Friday night. James played just 29 minutes, scoring 16 points with six rebounds and six assists.

The Lakers improved their record to 42-39 with one game left in the regular season. They face the Utah Jazz at Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, which could decide whether they make the playoffs outright or battle it out in the play-in tournament.

So, will "The King" be present on Saturday in Portland to watch his son Bronny James play at the 2023 Nike Hoop Summit? With the Lakers on a day off for Saturday, LeBron is expected to show his support for Bronny.

It will also be interesting to see if the James family has something big planned for Bronny's college decision. The latest betting odds have Ohio State as the favorite to land Bronny, while USC and Oregon are in second and third.
