Bronny has been the biggest story of the combine. How come no one here is talking about him?

He averaged 5 PPG on 35% shooting in college and is a PG who can't dribble.

He also had a health issue last year. Could have been why he was so bad.

If he was Johnny Smith he would be a non story. Its his name not what he did.

And so what? He’s still the biggest name in this draft and needs to be discussed.

Bronny really not looking good in the 5 on 5. Several bad passes and looks like he has no idea how to run a 2 on 1 fast break

Why? He did nothing in college. Because his dad is great he needs to be discussed?

Yes, his dad could end up going to the team that drafts him. At the very least we could see how big of an influence Klutch has on the draft.

They need to stop giving Bronny so much attention on so many platforms. Nauseating.

And yet, you made a post about it, and everyone clicks on the articles, and tweets about it, and it drives engagement. Sadly this is exactly why they keep doing it.

It had the opposite effect. I was looking up draft prospects info and I stopped shortly after feeling sick from non stop Bronny talk.

Anyone know if the top prospects will be playing 5s today? This “game” is horrible

Bronny should stay in this class and LA should draft him, let's get this charade over with don't wanna deal with it for another college season

Well thanks for giving Bronny more attention.

If he sucks it's in his best interest to do this every year until he's a senior for the exposure. Plus I think he's one of the top NIL guys in college.

If there weren't questions about Ware's motor, he would have went around the same place Lively went last year. He is going to have that dog him until he utilizes his immense physical gifts unfortunately.

considering his production this past season, are the questions about his motor even entirely fair?

Indiana fans who watched him all season wondered how he wasn't first team all-Big Ten, so I will cede to them on that. I know he was a disappointment at Oregon. The kid's tape I saw in high school made him look like Lively in terms speed and size. However, Lively's motor has him looking (to me) like a future DPOY candidate. Ware's defensive numbers were worse than senior year Trayce Jackson-Davis (who is three years older than him).

If I was New Orleans and he was avail with my pick, I would take him. Heck if I was OKC, I would also take him. But his motor would still concern me.

i feel like we hear random motor issues every year about prospects, and typically about bigs, but even with those 'motor issues' he was still highly productive and his winning metrics are off the charts. id be way more concerned if those motor concerns came with a lack of productivity but they didnt.

really the biggest question mark for me actually is how hard of a dip his FT% took this year with extended volume, he got the line a lot but 63% from the stripe especially for a guy that you want shooting for you in some capacity is a red flag

Castle measures 6’5.5”, 6’9” wingspan, 210 pounds officially.

While I care pretty little about athletic testing, Collier having a 34 inch max vert despite only having a 8'1.5" standing reach is really really bad.

Money is the last of his worries the NIL money is irrelevant to him. Fame maybe but I think it would backfire. If he sucks it's in his best interest to get drafted now because him returning and sucking next year is not going to help his draft prospects. At least now he has limited game tape, is "young" and has that potential injury excuse.

I can't find box scores for the scrimmage, but found multiple live updates of Bronny in the first scrimmage lol

NBA coverage is pure trash, always has been, the league deserves to be 2nd place to the NFL, and they are lucky soccer is not popular here either
