Fan Literally Got Down on His Knees to Beg Bronny James for a Shoutout in Viral Video

Bronny James is experiencing what life as a famous basketball is like.

The word fan is short for fanatic, and this latest fanatic just showed how crazy and desperate some fans can be when  he ran into LeBron’s son, Bronny James. The son of LeBron James was hanging out  with some friends when a  fan came up and asked him for a shoutout on Instagram, he too is a basketball player, and he made it known to Bronny just how much a shoutout would mean to him.  Bronny politely said he can’t do that, and Bronny’s security had to let the fan know it wasn’t going to happen for him. That’s when things turned really scary.

The fan dropped to his knees as he begged Bronny for a shoutout.

While it was once assumed that Lebron James’ oldest son would not be playing college basketball, that perception began to shift over the summer. It wasn’t until Lebron James went on social media himself, that it became clear that such reports were nothing more than sheer speculation.

He hasn’t taken 1 visit yet and has only had a few calls with coaches and universities. When Bronny makes his choice you’ll hear it from him. #JamesGang👑 https://t.co/BBciKxl7m8

About two weeks later, Bronny took an unofficial visit to Ohio State alongside his parents, in what was the first public recruiting activity, or event statement, that we have seen from him.

There is no doubt other schools could have legitimate interest in Bronny too, but it’s a complicated. I bet some coaches would be willing to get down on their knees and beg Bronny to play for them.
