Warriors' Draymond Green and Lakers' LeBron James Jr.
NBA (DR) / ESPN (DR)

As the NBA resumed its course this Tuesday with a clash between the Lakers and the Timberwolves, Bronny James made his official debut. On the sidelines of this event, Draymond Green spoke about his case… with annoyance.

Lakers fans were waiting above all to see their team play its first NBA game since April 29.

Fans of great stories, for their part, were hoping to witness the much-publicized debut of Bronny James alongside his father, LeBron.

So everyone ultimately came away satisfied with Tuesday’s evening, marked by the Angelenos’ victory over Minnesota (110-103). And even, no doubt, Draymond Green .

Draymond Green Reveals His Rebuke to Bronny James

A great friend of LeBron in everyday life, Draymond has obviously followed Bronny’s journey to the league closely. He has also not escaped the criticism he was subjected to even before his first official steps, which he was the first to condemn .

That said, the Warriors interior allowed himself to give the young guard an impartial piece of advice when he met him in preseason. He states in his podcast:

Draymond Green: I played against Bronny twice in the preseason and the second game I told him, ‘Bro, if you’re gonna fail, do it on your own terms.

You know how to play basketball and sometimes when I watch you, it seems like you act like you don’t know how to play.

If there’s one thing I know, you know how to play basketball, so play your game. If you’re gonna fail, do it on your own terms.’

So, I particularly enjoyed seeing him shine in the last preseason match against us.

Author of 17 points against a Golden State team somewhat reworked for its final preparation match, Bronny therefore pleased his opponent of the evening.

On the other hand, one aspect of his performance, and more generally of all his appearances on the field, remains stuck in the latter’s craw.

For the Dubs barker, the atmosphere that reigns until now in the rooms where LeBron’s son plays does not make his task any easier, which makes him fume:

Draymond Green: Last thing I want to say about Bronny: When he gets the ball, stop fucking getting all worked up like he can’t play and doesn’t belong in the NBA!

You make it so much harder when you do that! You make it seem like something phenomenal when all the kid wants to do is play basketball. No one gets excited when you’re about to do something at your job, so do the same to him. By acting like that, you’re not setting him up for success. I hate that.

Eager to see Bronny James play freely on the NBA courts, Draymond Green has since savored his good performance against the Warriors in the preseason. On the other hand, he now expects fans to be more restrained when he receives the ball in games.
