LeBron James appears to be growing weary of constant questions regarding his son, Bronny, who has struggled during the preseason with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Indeed, the eldest son of the NBA’s all-time leading scorer is averaging just 1.0 points, 1.0 rebounds, and 0.2 assists across his four exhibition games; statistics that are beginning to raise concerns among the fans of the popular Hollywood club.
Consequently, LBJ urged the media covering the Lakers to speak directly with Bronny rather than with him regarding the rookie.
“You have to ask him.
He’s an adult; ask him how he’s handling it,” noted the legendary forward.
Undoubtedly, the four-time MVP of both the regular season and NBA Finals believes that his heir is a mature individual, ready to face the challenges of performing at the elite level of basketball.
“He’s an adult; a professional.
He can handle all this pressure on his own, though we know why, for better or worse, the attention is here,” he added.
Despite the management and coaching staff considering giving Bronny a chance to make the main roster for Opening Day on October 22, some media outlets like ESPN have not ruled out the possibility that the new head coach, JJ Redick, may prefer to send the versatile player to the G-League immediately to acquire development tools as soon as possible.
