People keep saying this, but Bryce is basically playing JV, whereas bronny was a good contributor to an elite team as a freshman. Bryce looks like he'll get to 6'4" or 6'5" at least, but then you have to see whether he'll be a plus athlete.
bryce is a lights out shooter, with great courtvision already. thats what gets him into the NBA. not his athleticism. but yea you are right. hes only 15 or something i think. hehas ways to go and we gotta wait, so much can happen during that time now and him being 19-20.
asa prospect he looks a lot more promising than bronny.
I think people take too much from highlights. If you take the average guy who will eventually be an NBA player, they're absolutely dominating. Even a random average kid can just go off and hit threes all the time. The court vision is even more up in the air. At the same age, Bronny was a better player than Bryce is now. Better scorer, better defender, better passer, shooting was up in the air. The difference in competition they played was pretty drastic too.
Now, he might be more promising in a way, but there are plenty of 6'5" guards who can shoot and pass but are still only mid major prospects. I think the problem is people kind of assume these kids are at a certain level and skip steps. First you hzave to dominate high school, then its cool to talk about the NBA. hitting jumpers on JV and doing a eurostep isn't enough.
