CLEVELAND, Ohio – LeBron James has understood the power of leverage as being the most important player on his team.

That’s why no one should be surprised when the Lakers drafted Bronny (son of LeBron) James in the second round Thursday. Bronny averaged 4.8 points and 2.8 rebounds at USC, shooting 37% (27% on 3-pointers) in 19 minutes a game.
