I’m still wondering why the f*** he’s a Laker fan. He has no LA affiliation whatsoever. Hell, he should be a Nuggets fan considering he spent the majority of his career in Denver
He actually is a Nuggets fan to some extent, but I think he's more just a big LeBron fan. He used to defend the Nuggets/Jokic all the time against Skip when he was on fox

That would be so bad for both Bronny and the Lakers’ image. Nepotism of all nepotisms. But if they’re gonna go with the nepotism route, let his father take the hit: Bronny gets drafted by a non-Laker team and LeBron signs with them. It’d be more like LeBron signing with that team because of his son getting drafted.

Bronny James any good? Sounds like nepotism honestly if he does get drafted.

He averaged 4.8 pts a game in NCAA

He is not even close to being good enough for NBA, Pure nepotism if he makes it

He was a 4-star recruit, but it seems that at best he would otherwise be a summer league guy. It’s probably worth someone later drafting him to take advantage of the machinations.

I would argue he isn't good enough even for summer league invite

He's good enough for a summer league invite just on the basis of having been recruited and signed by a power 5 school, and the fact that two years ago we had someone get drafted in college despite redshirting his only season, but, yes, anyone else would be in through transfer portal going to a smaller school and get more playing time if they had any kind of professional aspirations.

if using a second round pick on bronny means that lebron stays for another few seasons and prolongs their contention window, it's a no-doubter

Do they want to be a treadmill team for more years?
it won't happen, but they'd be better off blowing it all up and starting from scratch. lebron's turning 40 and even though he's still playing at an elite level, he's not capable of putting a team on his back like he used to. AD played almost a full season and i doubt that'll ever happen again. and the supporting cast just isn't good enough. they could get a haul in return for both in separate deals and go the OKC route by stockpiling picks

but that'll never happen as long as lebron is willing to stay
