It was the dream that LeBron James first floated a few years ago, the notion of playing in the NBA alongside one of his sons. And it’s a step closer to reality now. Bronny James — the oldest son of the NBA’s all-time scoring leader — was drafted Thursday by the Los Angeles Lakers, the team that his father has played for since 2018. Bronny James was taken with the No. 55 overall pick, deep in the second round and with only three picks remaining in this year’s draft. The move doesn’t guarantee that father and son will play in a game together, but it certainly raises the possibility that it could happen in what would be an NBA first.
California lawmakers have approved a budget that slashes spending and temporarily raises taxes on businesses. The budget closes an estimated $46.8 billion budget deficit. It's the second year in a row the nation's most populous state has had a multibillion-dollar shortfall. The budget includes $16 billion in cuts. It temporarily raises taxes on businesses with more than $1 million in revenue. The taxes are expected to bring in more than $5 billion to the state.

A proposal that would require California universities to pay their athletes through a “degree completion fund” has been withdrawn. The plan would have required schools earning at least $10 million in athletics media rights revenue each year to pay $25,000 to certain athletes through the degree funds.

Among other things, that plan allows each school to spend up to some $22 million each year in direct payments to athletes.

Families of the 346 people who died in two crashes of Boeing 737 Max jetliners are waiting to hear if the Justice Department will prosecute the U.S. aerospace company. In both the October 2018 crash in Indonesia and the March 2019 crash in Ethiopia, software pitched the plane's nose down based on faulty readings from a single sensor. Boeing avoided a trial when prosecutors approved an agreement that meant a felony fraud charge they brought could be dropped in three years. California residents Ike and Susan Riffel lost two sons in the Ethiopia crash. Ike Riffel fears that instead of putting Boeing on trial, the government will offer the company another shot at corporate probation.

A female capybara has arrived at a Florida zoo as part of a breeding program to bolster the population of the large South American rodents. Iyari the 10-month-old capybara went to the Palm Beach Zoo & Conservation Society in May from the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. She’s in a mixed-species habitat while zoo workers slowly introduce her to the park’s 2-year-old male capybara, Zeus. Capybara gestation is about five months with an average litter of four. Palm Beach Zoo officials aren’t sure when to expect baby capybaras. They say it will all depend on how long it takes Iyari and Zeus to get to know each other.
