Bronny James’ Halftime Stats Going Viral On Wednesday… See more
Welcome to Summer League, Bronny James.
After a tough start to his career with the Los Angeles Lakers, James is heating up on Wednesday evening. His stats at halftime on Wednesday night are impressive.
James, the No. 55 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, has nine points on four of six shooting from the field, including one three-pointer made.
James has impressed with his shooting, along with a tough layup in traffic.
Rachel Nichols is among those who believes the criticism aimed at Bronny James has been unfair.
“I think that people are looking at him as if he’s a top-10 pick,” Nichols said. “He is not a top-10 pick. He is a No. 55 pick. The expectations for a No. 55 pick should be that you are largely headed to the G-League and may get some games up in the NBA.”
She added: “JJ Redick has come out and said that he’s a developmental player. We all knew this going in. So to sit there and criticize him for Summer League numbers that, as I have said several times, stats do not matter in Summer League.”
