Bronny James and Shaq’s son, Shareef O’Neal were reportedly denied entrance at Saweetie’s birthday party

Bronny James and Shaq’s son Shareef O’Neal were reportedly denied entrance at Saweetie’s birthday party.

James, the son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, recently committed to play college basketball at the University of Southern California. He’s one of the top guards in his class, and it’s likely that he finds himself as a candidate to be picked in the 2024 NBA Draft if his freshman season with the Trojans goes well.

The younger James is an elite combo guard that has great instincts on the defensive end of the floor. He also appears to have inherited some of his father’s legendary basketball IQ.

However, a new update in the story has been given. TMZ is now confirming that the teenagers were sent away due to their age. Poppy is a place that serves alcohol, and Bronny is only 18. The legal drinking age in the United States is 21, and therefore, it would have been illegal for the young man to be there. Ultimately, it is no big deal as he will just have to wait a few years before going to such parties. Once he is in the NBA, there will be lots of time for that.

Last night, Bronny found himself in a bit of a jam. However, it wasn’t a jam that was particularly serious. As we reported earlier today, the Sierra Canyon High School star was turned away from Saweetie’s birthday party in Hollywood. The artist was hosting her party at Poppy when Bronny and Shareef O’Neal came through with some friends. They were denied entry to the party and were told to turn around and go somewhere else. As TMZ reports, that is exactly what they did.

O’Neal, the son of Lakers and NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal, spent the 2022-23 season with the G League Ignite. He appeared in 20 games for the Ignite, averaging 5.6 points and 3.2 rebounds in 15.5 minutes per game.

The younger O’Neal played his collegiate basketball at two schools. He started his career at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) before transferring to play at Louisiana State University (LSU).
