Jaylen Brown questions Bronny James’ NBA future, purportedly telling Kysre Gondrezick and Angel Reese that Bronny’s inclusion on the Lakers may be due to his name rather than his abilities.
Jaylen Brown, the Boston Celtics’ star, does not see LeBron James’ son Bronny as an NBA player.
Bronny and the Los Angeles Lakers played a Summer League game against the Celtics in Las Vegas on Monday night. During the game, Bronny struggled on offense and even attempted an air ball from the 3-point line, where he is 0-15 this summer league. Brown was sitting courtside alongside his girlfriend, Kysre Gondrezick, and WNBA rookie star Angel Reese.
Brown was seen on NBA TV’s sideline cameras saying, “I don’t think Bronny is a pro.” “I think he’ll be on the G-League team, for sure,” Gondrezick allegedly stated. “I don’t think so; I think because of his name, he’ll be on the Lakers,” Brown added.
Bronny was selected 55th overall in the 2024 NBA draft. Bronny’s signing with the Lakers satisfies his father, LeBron’s, long-held dream of playing alongside his son in the NBA. This is the first time in NBA history that a father-son combo is on the same roster.
Bronny’s rookie contract is for four years and $7.9 million, with a team option for the fourth season.
