A fellow Los Angeles star has high expectations for Ladd McConkey on the eve of the regular season.

Lakers All-Star and future Hall of Famer LeBron James recently tabbed the Chargers second-year receiver as a player he has his eye on in 2025.

In a video posted by DraftKings' Pick6, the Lakers superstar went down the list of his six NFL Players to watch in the upcoming season.

And finishing up his list was the young receiver, whom he has high hopes for following his historic rookie season.

"Ladd McConkey, I think he's going to have a monster year," said James.

James also listed Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud and Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson on his list.

McConkey, of course, broke the Chargers rookie receiving records last season after posting 82 catches and receiving yards 1,149.

He also set a new mark for receiving yards in a playoff game by a rookie with 197 yards in his first postseason appearance.

It's safe to say the Bolts receiver turned some heads in his first season, including with a big name across town.
