Bronny James had a tough shooting night on Monday, going 1 for 5 in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 88-74 defeat to the Boston Celtics.
It has led to increased speculation that he is simply not ready to be a star or even a role player in the league.
During his most recent game against the Boston Celtics in Las Vegas, one piece of a video surfaced of Bronny James being in no man’s land as the Celtics were on a fastbreak play that pitted him one against three.
An alley-oop pass was thrown up for what should’ve been an easy two points, but Bronny had other ideas as he blocked the attempt out of bounds.
The video actually convinced everyone that Bronny was playing the wrong sport.
During the play, Bronny James showed an incredible ability to backpedal and turn his body perfectly without falling before breaking up a pass, just like a solid cornerback would do in the NFL.
If the NBA doesn’t work out, and it looks like it might be headed that way, Bronny should seriously consider trying his hand at football.
The UFL would be a great place to start to see if he has what it takes.
As for his most recent game, the 19-year-old rookie out of Southern California could only muster up two points, three rebounds, and one assist in 25 minutes of play. He was 0 for three from 3-point range and is now 0 for 15 from beyond the arc in four games, per NBA.com.
Bronny James Slated To Spend A Lot of Time In The G-League
Bronny James played in his fourth NBA Summer League game on Monday night against the Boston Celtics, continuing to show that he is a work in progress.
James was the No. 55 pick in the draft, and he looks like it. He will need some reps in the G League before he can contribute any meaningful minutes on the Lakers’ roster.
The team will have to be patient with his offensive skills, but even with his inconsistent shooting, he’s showing promise as an on-ball defender who is showing he has great instincts.
