LeBron & Savannah James Beam With Pride as Bronny James Wins Over Haters With Another Career Night
As the dust settles, Bronny James comes out all guns blazing. Amid the rising criticism, the LA Lakers roped in the rising star with a second-round pick. It was either too early or too much pressure, LeBron James’ son just couldn’t shut his critics. After featuring in just 7 games, James Jr. has averaged 0.6 ppg under a 2.6-minute appearance per game. While the team eventually sent him to the G-League, the 19-year-old finally looked comfortable.
Playing alongside the players, who are in the developmental phase to become an NBA player, Bronny quickly proved that he belonged there. After a career-high 30-point performance and several notable performances, the young gun again caught the fans’ attention. Playing against the Cavs’ G-League affiliate Cleveland Charge, the rising star last night dropped 23 points with a career-high 9 rebounds. However, this impressive performance from the guard came in a losing cause, as they suffered a 93-90 loss.
In response to the performance, LeBron James, who had taken a social media hiatus, proudly shared his son’s stat line on his IG stories. Notably, when Bronny dropped his career-high 30 points, Akron Hammer’s IG story remained untouched.
On the other hand, Savannah James also showed her love by sharing the stat line on her IG stories. Notably, she has consistently showcased her support on social media. Apart from family, fans, who tackled the haters for these while, celebrated Bronny’s personal milestone as their own. Let’s find out what fans have to say.
Bronny James’ performance leaves fans raving
Bronny James just proved to the world that it needs only a few good games to win over the fans’ hearts. Coming after a cardiac arrest, the youngster wasn’t prepared for his freshman year and it reflected on his college stats. Before he could even prove himself, he was already in the NBA. The rising star definitely lacked confidence and guess what? It reflected in his shot selection and the number of buckets hitting the rim.
So far, Bronny took around 4 shots from the arc and missed all of them. But it feels like he missed a lot. However, times have changed since he represented the Lakers in G-League. Speaking of his sudden rise, a fan wrote, “finally playing w confidence, i like this bronny.” Moreover, this rise is a direct response to the haters, who criticized him since his collegiate performance. Notably, the crowd often welcomed him with demoralizing chants like “Whose your daddy?” “Overrated”. Most importantly, the nepotism digs, but he certainly seemed to have overcome them, as a fan wrote, “HE’S SHUTTING ALL THE HATERS DOWN.”
On the other hand, a fan already found a comparison for the 19-year-old playing style. This fan wrote, “He gone be a little better than Jrue Holiday.” To be honest, both of them have a pretty similar resume. The Celts’ guard is a 2-way defense dominant player and often has good looks with his three-pointers and lay-ups. Bronny has already proved his defensive ability, and it’s a just matter of a few dominant offensive bags and he’s all set to take over the league.
Another fan went a bit ahead of themselves, as they wrote, “bronny and lebron gone win a ring mark my words.” Notably, it’s still possible even without Bronny in the mix. Currently, the Lakers have found their rhythm amid their shaky star. Standing at the 5th seed, JJ Redick & Co. have the opportunity to win the championship this year. Above all, haters going to hate. Amid the overwhelming support for Bronny, a fan wrote, “G league…he still buns.” Anyway, Bronny still has to prove himself in the big league. Do you think he’s ready? Let us know in the comments.
