LeBron James’ son showed off his skills during his performance for coaches and scouts
Bronny James, the son of NBA icon LeBron James, delivered an unforgettable performance at the NBA Draft Combine, leaving even his harshest critics without much to criticize. In a dazzling display of skill, Bronny nailed 12 three-pointers in a row, maintaining his streak for over a minute during a shooting and conditioning drill.
Despite his impressive showing, online critics didn’t hold back. Among them was Carolina Panthers punter Johnny Hekker, who tweeted a popular jab, “Bro’s catch and release is 2-3 business days,” earning over 10,000 likes. Yet, regardless of the comments about his release time, Bronny’s stats were undeniable, showcasing his exceptional talent on the court.
His Stats
According to sources, Bronny finished the 3-point shooting drill 19-for-25, the second-best among all participants. His max vertical jump of 40.5 inches was the fourth-highest recorded at the combine.
The only concern noted was Bronny’s height without shoes, measured at 6-foot-1. However, his 6-foot-7 wingspan and the potential to grow closer to his father’s 6-foot-9 frame help offset this concern.
Despite being seen as a borderline second-round pick, some believe that drafting Bronny could influence LeBron James to opt out of his contract with the Los Angeles Lakers and join whichever team selects his son. But what the future will bring, remains to be seen.
