Yeah I don't think they needed to be worried about that lol.

Put your Bronny cards next to your Thanasis Antekoumpo cards

This: "Bronny getting drafted is why people believe the NBA is rigged/scripted"

Then again, an entourage traditionally confers weight in Hollywood.

Yeah I have no idea if the kid will make it. Given what he's done so far he hasn't really earned being drafted. I do think he's being put in a terrible situation as everyone knows he's only on the team because of his Dad. Sports is supposed to be a meritocracy.

At least TA will retire with a ring. Lol.

Gonna be so nice in garbage time (when down big) to see LeBron padding his stats and having his useless son getting some minutes with him. Makes you go awwww.

It’s still embarrassing for the league

Both things can be true

I can’t imagine a kid feeling awesome that they got the job they wanted solely because their Dad got it for them.

[Lee42]

I really feel for Bronny, could have just forged his own career on his own terms and been happy!

Now he has to pass his dad a towel in the showers after the game.

If he feels that way

There was an article on nepotism in Hollywood and a good majority of actors with parents in the industry did feel awesome and believed they still got the roles off their own merits

And Bronny will retire with a lot of wealth (not just $ but a myriad of life experiences).

I read about Filipowski and his 26 year old girlfriend, there may be some issues with her and his family. Supposedly some GM's even knew about it.

Cute of LeBron to choose his son over building a championship team. Just another L that buries him even deeper compared to MJ.

Recent second round picks: Jokic, Brunson, Brooks, Brogdon, and Gafford. These aren’t throw away picks.

Im sure Kevin McCullar Jr, Ulrich Chomce or Ariel Hukporti are the next 2nd rounders that make an All-NBA team!!

John Q to the Fakers...just as prophesized. Props to Jeanie, Rob Lowe, Pol Pot, and the entire Los Scandalous organization.

On the eve of Debate '24, no less. You couldn't have scripted a better salt wound.

[hermanotarjeta]

LeVar James salivating over the thought of an in-season tournament twopeat ring with that nepotistic selection.

Poor Bronny has just been Legrounded to the bench for life.

He belongs playing in Australia anyway.

Man.. the amount of venom being directed towards a 19 year old who went from having a cardiac arrest 1 year ago to getting the opportunity to compete for a spot on an NBA roster around here is telling.

I mean, the literal only reason he got drafted was LeBron, not because he's a remotely NBA caliber prospect, but hey, good for him. He seems like a good kid who is the victim of his father being annoying about him.

His narcissistic father was solely responsible for the genocides in Africa along with the bubonic plague.



Blood on his hands.

Sounds like Lonzo Ball, but he was actually good at basketball.
