The glow of a dream come true.
Bronny James can’t wipe the smile off his face after living out one of the dreams every athlete hopes for.
There are moments in a player’s life that are not measured by points or victories. They go beyond the game because they show how far someone has come and what still lies ahead. Bronny James just experienced one of those moments, and even before anyone knew exactly what was happening, his smile already said everything.
It did not happen during a game or in the middle of an interview. Cameras caught him wearing an unforgettable expression, that wide smile of someone making a long-held dream come true. Surrounded by lights, equipment, and screens, Bronny was enjoying a moment that few people reach but millions imagine at some point in their lives.
For someone who has been in the public eye since a young age, every step Bronny takes carries special weight. From his high school days to his arrival in the NBA, he has always tried to show that his journey is not just about his last name. Now he adds something new to that story, his official scan for NBA 2K26. That process where every detail of his face, body, and movements is recorded to bring him into the digital world.
The legacy lives on.
What makes it even more special is knowing who he will share that space with in the game. Bronny is not just another rookie joining 2K, he is LeBron James’s son, and now both will appear together in the same edition. For fans, it feels almost unreal to see the James legacy move to a virtual court, ready to be played by millions. A legacy that is not ending but just beginning with a new generation.

But it is not only about basketball. Bronny grew up in a time where sports and video games go hand in hand. That is why seeing himself in 2K is not just recognition as an athlete, it is also a symbol of a culture he has been part of since he was a kid. It is a reminder of how much he has grown while still keeping his eyes on everything he wants to achieve.
And that smile says it all. From high school gyms to the NBA and now into the digital world, Bronny James keeps building his own name.
