Taking his medical history into account, a fan commented, “Add concussion to his medical records.” While some fans were just laughing at the silly act, others were quick enough to find some hilarious GIFs. Another fan wrote, “He loves trying to glide in the air.” The other sect of fans was claiming him to be the next sensational NBA prospect. Although Bronny hasn’t hit that point in his career yet, being LeBron James’ son definitely has some advantages.
There is enough speculation in the league on the question of whether Bronny will get drafted in 2024 with such a trailing record or not. And the recent loss to the ASU Devils just adds to the list.
Bronny James and USC suffer a tragic loss to the ASU
James Jr. recently recorded his debut in college basketball after recovering from a heart attack scare. Bronny recorded minutes in his 11th college basketball game while playing against the ASU Devils on January 20, 2024. The guard finished the night with 7 points, 4 rebounds, and 5 assists in a 67-82 loss to the Devils.
Since his first game this season, the son of the Lakers’ forward has been moving in a spiral. The inconsistent scoring record has received traction from the entire league, it seems. Bronny is averaging 5.9 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 38.1 shooting from the deep in his 11 games. Although the rookie has recovered quickly after sustaining the medical setback, he has managed to throw only three double-digit performances till now.
The team is about to face the UCLA Bruins on January 27, 2024, at the Galen Center in a home game. The question is, can the fans expect another showstopper performance from the rookie while heading to the locker room?
