INGLEWOOD, Calif. — As Snoop Dogg's son, Cordell Broadus, would have been at Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night with his father if it would have been held at Staples Center and not the Orlando bubble.

Instead, he's watching with his wife, daughter, and friends at Snoop's compound in Inglewood.

"You know, I'm grateful I'm able to go to the games, but it's more comfortable watching at home," Broadus said. "And you can say whatever you want without feeling like you're gonna offend somebody sitting next to you."

Broadus was at Staples Center in 2010 when the Lakers last won a championship. It was Kobe Bryant's fifth and final title.

"Man, you can never forget that," he said. "I'm so blessed that I was able to watch Kobe play in his prime and win his last ring, and to do it with your family, that's legacy. I can tell my kids."

It's all about basketball and entertainment at the compound, with a full-length basketball court, recording studio, and a full green screen room. In 2017, the compound was host to another NBA Finals watch party filled with NBA and NFL stars. 

Although Broadus doesn't get caught up in the big names he's around, he'd rather learn from them, he said.

"This place is always filled with great people doing great things just because greatness wants to be around greatness," Broadus said.

Many remember him as a growing football talent. Those days are gone as his focus has shifted from sports to entrepreneurship, building on what his father started with Broadus' Branding Agency, including part ownership of the Broken Street Apparel clothing company.

"What my father did in entertainment, I want to do in clothing, retail, and tech," Broadus said. "I want to try to touch as many fields as I can."

He's doing it all while watching his favorite player LeBron James and the Lakers go for their 17th Championship.
