Bronny James will be gearing up for his rookie season in the NBA
As soon he was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2024 NBA draft, the pressure increased for Bronny James. He was not one of the highly regarded picks of the draft and many analysts even claimed that James Jr. could go undrafted. As the son of the great LeBron James, it was expected by the fans that Bronny’s play would be under the microscope of the media.
When Bronny made his debut in the NBA Summer League, it was evident that he was struggling on the court. After this many critics fired on the younger James and even called him not ready for the NBA. But in the final stages of the tournament, James Jr. found his rhythm and was dropping buckets. Bronny has shown great promise on the defensive side of the games and has the blueprints of a great defender.
With the regular season starting soon, Bronny will be gearing up to make his debut in the league and make his impact. Although James Jr. will not be getting enough minutes in his rookie season, fans could still expect many great plays from him.
