Bronny James will have tons of eyeballs on him this week, as the hoops world learns whether LeBron James’ firstborn will be drafted or not.
If you’ve spent the past calendar year under a rock, this might be news to you, but yes, there is some uncertainty over whether James will be selected. His one-and-done run at USC, which had a delayed start after he suffered cardiac arrest in July, wound up being pretty quiet—media attention, aside. He averaged just 4.8 points and 2.1 assists in 19.3 minutes over 25 games, only six of which he started.
College production doesn’t mean everything for NBA prospects, obviously, but it does have some questioning James’ readiness for the big leagues.
Teams could still draft James and plan on further development, of course, but those sinking more immediate impact might look elsewhere.
