There appears to be two strains of thought in the case of Bronny James’ NBA profession.
On the one hand, it’s not truthful to guage him as a star prospect, as he was the No. 55 decide.
However, he bought a a lot better contract than the common second-rounder — not to mention a No. 55 decide — and with that, criticism and judgment will all the time be part of the equation.
Bronny didn’t look prepared within the Summer season League, and he hasn’t gotten a lot better up to now.
His preseason totals left lots to be desired, even for a second-rounder.
As identified by StatMamba on X, Bronny capped off the preseason with a grand whole of 25 factors.

He added ten boards, 5 blocks, and three steals, and he struggled mightily along with his shot.
Evidently, that led to loads of mockery and criticism on social media.
4 sport totals?
Not nice.
His dad does this in a single sport
Now take out tonight.
thats a superb gam..ohhhh
It’s extra enjoyable to have a look at the per sport averages:
4.2 PTS1.7 REB0.8 BLK0.5 STL
That is like 1 Wemby stat line
To be truthful, Bronny can’t be measured as a star prospect, nor can he even be in comparison with his father, as he’s clearly not on that stage.
Then once more, nepotism is rarely good, and his camp may’ve dealt with issues a bit of higher with him.
It all the time appeared like he would’ve benefitted from staying in faculty for an additional yr, and it looks as if James’ want and dedication to play along with his son led to this rash resolution.
Hopefully, the Lakers will be capable of develop him and switch him right into a serviceable NBA participant, but it surely is perhaps a really lengthy whereas earlier than that occurs.
