The fact that Bronny and his father, LeBron James could play together one day was a day every basketball fan was looking forward to. People were waiting to see them play together on the same team. But it turns out, it might be difficult to see this coming, because of shocking revelations coming in on Bronny’s future in the NBA world from ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Ahead of the Lakers’ game against the Denver Nuggets, Wojnarowski sat alongside his colleagues in the middle of the Crypto.com arena and broke the news. He said, “If it organically happens [Bronny’s trade to Lakers], LeBron would be head over heels, excited to play with Bronny, but in Rich Paul’s words LeBron wants Bronny to be his own man…”

 

Bronny James is currently playing his freshman year for USC and is pondering over the decision on the future drafts this year. His biggest concern right now is where would he fit the best to develop his future. The 19YO is struggling so far in college basketball, with 5 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists as his average. He even has a rather underwhelming shooting percentage, 37%. Added to this, his controversy with ESPN’s mock drafts where the news network analysts stated how Bronny might not get picked this year, is adding fuel to the fire.

Even though it was a tough year for Bronny who suffered through a cardiac arrest, everything he does is praiseworthy. After months of rest and with the support of the family’s medical team, he was back on the court. Nevertheless, it wasn’t just enough for him to impress the ball fans. Let’s take a look at Bronny’s journey with the USC so far.

Bronny James – Freshman year so far

It hasn’t been an easy journey being a superstar’s son. Bronny was used to booing and ‘Daddy’s boy’ from his high school. And, it did not stop at the collegiate level as well. Recently, when USC visited Los Angeles to play against UCLA, the crowd didn’t give time to the 19-year-old to settle in.

 

The crowd welcomed the youth with ‘Who’s your daddy?’ and ‘overrated’ chants when he was about to clock into the game. Currently, USC is in the second last seed of the Pac-12 division, and will definitely have a hard time qualifying for further rounds in the March Madness.

This leaves the NBA world with only two options, either to expect Bronny’s name in the 2024 draft or continue seeing him play his sophomore year for the USC. What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
