"Congratulations grandson!!!! You’ve always made me very proud of you. And seeing you graduate tonight, just made me feel an even bigger sense of pride," she wrote.

Bronny James will remain near his family, playing his home games not far from where his father suits up for the Lakers.

He has expressed a desire to play in the league with his son, but hinted at retirement following the Denver Nuggets' sweep of the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals on Monday.
