La La Anthony, widely recognized as a television personality and the former spouse of NBA celebrity Carmelo Anthony, recently spoke about her son, Kiyan Anthony, and the new Los Angeles Lakers rookie, Bronny James. She discussed how both of these young athletes are shaping their basketball careers.

La La admires Bronny’s journey, stating this when speaking to TMZ., “Bronny is an inspiration. He’s in the NBA right now. He’s crushing it and making history playing with his dad.” While recognizing Bronny’s success, she also pointed out Kiyan’s individuality, saying, “He’s doing his own thing.” This shows her appreciation for both athletes’ unique journeys.

Kiyan, born on March 7, 2007, in Los Angeles, is a senior at Long Island Lutheran High School in New York, where he plays as a shooting guard and forward. He is 6 feet 5 inches tall and has a unique playing style. He is known for his deadly pull-up jumper and good long-range accuracy.

Kiyan is ranked among the top shooting guards in the class of 2025 and is 30th on On3’s top 150 list. During the EYBL, he averaged 19.6 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. He has received offers from several Division I colleges, including Indiana, Michigan, and Syracuse, his father’s school.

La La understands how important Syracuse is, where Carmelo won a national championship in 2003, but she says, “I want him to be happy,” showing that Kiyan should choose what’s best for him.

Bronny James’s Journey To The NBA

Bronny James, born October 6, 2004, in Akron, Ohio, plays for the Los Angeles Lakers after playing for USC. At 6 feet 2 inches, he plays both point guard and shooting guard. He is known for his catch-and-shoot ability and strong defense.

As a McDonald’s All-American, the Lakers picked Bronny 55th overall in the 2024 NBA draft. He made history by playing with his father, LeBron James. After experiencing cardiac arrest in 2023, he showed great strength and returned to play less than five months later.

While La La Anthony sees similarities between Kiyan Anthony and Bronny James, she values their different paths. Both draw inspiration from their fathers but focus on making their own marks in basketball. Kiyan will be draft-eligible in 2029, and everyone highly anticipates his growth.

Clint Eastwood turned 95 recently, but it hasn’t been an easy year for the legendary actor and director.

On Tuesday, fans across the country poured out messages of support as news spread about his recent struggles. Eastwood has been mourning the sudden death of his longtime partner, Christina Sandera, who passed away from a heart attack earlier this year.

The Hollywood icon has kept a low profile since her passing. For fans who’ve followed his career for decades, seeing Eastwood go through this personal loss has struck a chord. Though the actor has rarely been seen in public in recent months, his son Scott Eastwood shared a welcome update that gave many people a reason to breathe a little easier.

Scott Eastwood, in a recent interview, reassured fans that his father is holding up. “He’s doing good,” he said. “He’s a survivor, a trouper. He was born coming out of the Great Depression, and then he was young during World War II. He saw a lot of struggle.” That perspective seems to be carrying Eastwood through yet another chapter of hardship.

 

Supporters didn’t hesitate to show their love. Social media lit up with tributes, memories, and heartfelt messages. Many highlighted not only his contributions to film but also his resilience as a person.

“There are literally hundreds of reasons why a man doesn’t get better with age,” one fan posted on X.

Another fan commented, “HE IS NEVER GONNA STOP!!!!”

Another fan chimed in, “I hope he blesses us with his presence for many more years!”

Photographs from December 2018 show Eastwood attending the premiere of The Mule with Sandera by his side. The two had been together for years, and her sudden loss clearly left a mark on him. Though the grief remains, Eastwood isn’t ready to slow down completely. In an interview with Kurier on May 30, he reflected on aging with intent. “There’s no reason why a man can’t get better with age,” he said. “And I have much more experience today. Sure, there are directors who lose their touch at a certain age, but I’m not one of them.”

Clint Eastwood, who has eight children- Laurie, Kimber, Alison, Francesca, Kyle, Kathryn, Scott and Morgan- continues to lean on family during this time. For fans, the hope is simple: that he keeps creating, keeps going, and, most of all, keeps finding strength in the days ahead.
