Interestingly enough, even with the obvious height difference Bronny looks just like his dad when shooting the midrange and free throw. His body position for the midrange is the same and his free throw is almost identity even the “shuffling of the feet, look up, breathe, 1 dribble shoot”. Please don’t ask me why I know that.

He’s also very active on defense, he moves his feet. He adjusted to the speed throughout the game (the video at least, I didn’t watch the game). But he is small. He’s going to need to develop an elite something because the point guard position in the NBA is crazy. There are bigger and faster players than what he just experienced.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.-John 3:16

Bronny: poor defense, tunnel vision on offense. But he'll get his minutes.

Not even real NBA players.

I don’t think any of those Kings players had NBA experience.

Adonis Arms had 32/11/5, is 26 years old, never played an NBA game and just made Bronny look like a kid off the streets. Guess who has an NBA contract?


Bronny just needs reps. Once he’s the starting lead guard for the lakers he can really show his stuff


Mate the summer league is the only time he’ll be a starting guard :lol:

Man that shot... reminds me of Ben Simmons especially that last free throw attempt. Looked like he just pushes it hard.

Is Bronny even a point guard? He didn’t bring the ball up once and was hiding around the three waiting for a teammate to pass as a last resort option. Saw zero nba skill out there

He couldnt even make his free throws

Which is not surprising.

College percentages:

FG% 36.6.
3P% 26.7.
FT% 67.6.


Someone who is only 6”1 should not be shooting like this…..

Agreed, people forget how young he is which makes him full of potential.


He looks really good out there.

Imagine they pair him with Flagg, Bailey or Traore.

Let's not forget his dad was a little bit slow out of the gates as well. Bronnie looks like he has the wearing basketball sneakers part of the game figured out already , once he can add shooting, passing, defense and pretty much every other skill in basketball to his repetoir, look out!

Nothing about Bronnys game is "special", like at all. People need to stop glazing.

With that said, we should show the same level of patience we would with any other prospect.
