Bronny James proves critics wrong with dominant G-League performance, as Savannah and LeBron James back him against haters

He has found his rhythm

After being selected by the LA Lakers with a second-round pick, Bronny James, the son of LeBron James, faced immense pressure right from the start.

With only a handful of appearances in his rookie season, the 19-year-old struggled to make an immediate impact, averaging 0.6 points per game in just 2.6 minutes of play across seven games.

As expected, the Lakers sent him to the G-League to further develop his skills.

However, since his time in the developmental league, Bronny has found his rhythm. In a recent game against the Cleveland Charge, the G-League affiliate of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Bronny delivered a standout performance, posting 23 points and a career-high 9 rebounds.

While his team, the South Bay Lakers, suffered a narrow 93-90 loss, Bronny‘s performance reaffirmed his potential and ability to shine in competitive basketball settings.

This was a significant step for the young guard, who had previously faced harsh criticism for his early struggles. But his consistency and growth in the G-League have demonstrated that Bronny is adapting and excelling.

His performance, along with his career-high 30-point game earlier this season, has silenced many of his critics and put him back in the spotlight.

LeBron and Savannah James show support

LeBron James, who had been on a social media hiatus, took to Instagram Stories to share his pride in his son’s performance. “Proud of you, Bronny,” LeBron posted, alongside the stats from his son’s impressive showing.

This marks a stark contrast to LeBron‘s lack of posts when Bronny previously scored 30 points-perhaps a reflection of his cautious optimism earlier in the season.

Savannah James, Bronny‘s mother, also shared her pride, posting about her son’s accomplishment on her own social media accounts.

The young athlete’s rise in the G-League has not gone unnoticed by the fans, who are celebrating his accomplishments and shutting down the critics who have hounded him since his collegiate career.

Despite early struggles in college, including facing chants like “Whose your daddy?” and “Overrated,” Bronny appears to have developed newfound confidence and resilience.
