LeBron James Shockingly Responds To Expert's Analysis Of Son's Game

LeBron James has provided an update on his Bronny’s progress by responding to a report on social media.

Despite being intertwined with his father’s legacy, Bronny is carving his own path in the sport.

The 16-year-old is now becoming one of the most sought-after future NBA prospects, having earned rave reviews from scouting experts.

Rashad Phillips was amongst the latest NCAA and NBA prospect experts to weigh in on Bronny’s game, stressing the teenager is “actually good.”

“I’ve been asked to break down Bronny’s game. He’s is a 6’4 combo guard with excellent defensive instincts and upper body strength,” Phillips tweeted. “He excels in open court and also has a good feel on offense. He’s a streaky but confident shooter. He’s actually good. Well done.”

“Bronny James has tremendous defensive timing, strength, and awareness,” he added. “His jump shot mechanics looks good from the rotation of the ball to his release point. Powerful upper body for a 6’4 kid and quick feet. The kid can play.”

To everybody’s surprise, LeBron himself acknowledged the analyst’s comment, something the four-time NBA MVP rarely does.

“Appreciate it,” James commented. “We just over here just working and preaching how to play the game the right way!”

Bronny currently plays for the Sierra Canyon School in California and is rated as a 5-star guard prospect in the 2023 college basketball recruiting class.

However, some pundits project that the basketball prodigy will be drafted in the 2024 class.

While Bronny has yet to decide on a timeframe for his jump to the pros, his father earlier admitted that being able to play with his son in the NBA is one of his “goals.”

"That's definitely one of my goals, but that's a long-term goal," James told reporters in a presser following the 2021 NBA All-Star Game last March. "My son right now is in high school and enjoying what being a teenager is all about. But that would be pretty cool to go on my resume."

"I don't know how long I'm going to play the game," he continued. "I don't know how much more I'll be able to give to the game. But the way I feel right now, we'll see what happens. I have no timetable for it. I have no year of 'Do I want to play until 30-this or 40-that?' The game will let me know when it's time. We'll figure it out then."
