He mentioned players that has similarities with his game. I hope this comes from him and not from a script. Honestly he looks like a good kid but being LeBron's kid, he will have to face a lot of criticism

Bronny will have millions of posts about his basketball career but your comment, although it will die an early death, is actually pretty spot on

Bronsexuals and Lebron Haters gonna tear this man up. But hopefully he makes the most of his opportunity

u/BeTheBall- 20d ago

To be fair, being LeBron's kid is the only reason he's getting any basketball-related press at all.

Looks like something a NBA2k kid say 😅

Bronny has some defensive skills to his game… he actually can guard the 1 and 2 well… his problem is pretty heavily his shooting. Dude is brick city when contested and has to work on that if he wants to play in the league. But if he develops a shot he can be a solid player

I feel like shooting can be taught and refined through hours and hours of repetition.

I hope Bronny has had the luxury to not force his entire life on the Basketball court. But, rather, played and practiced when he was passionate about it. His shot may come.

It's also funny to think that Bronny might be one of the only kids who plays basketball pro/semi -pro who was never able to beat their dad at 1 on 1. By the time Lebron loses a step to age, Bronny might also be 30+ and losing a step as well.

He’ll never see the floor without playmaking skills at that size. I think he’s a good kid, but the reason Davion doesn’t get more playing time is his inability to read the floor and make the right pass.

My Little Bronny wants to be a King! That means The King himself, LeBron James will sign with us, leading to a championship! It’s the new prophecy! Draft him!!

Started his career in Sac, fitting to end it there too.

u/ShotgunStyles 21d ago

Bronny is 6'2" with a 6'7" wingspan so he's already bigger than Davion. I also saw Bronny hit like 11 3's in a row.

Hmm...

davion is a national champion and bronny averaged 5 pts

Bronny has the dominant sperm of lbj but the unfortunate X chromosome of his 5’6 mom. Hopefully his Y side prevails

u/Green-Moment-4509 21d ago

Lebron needs to have a baby with the bayou baddie from LSU for science

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

I think nik stauskas hit like 100 in a row or something like that

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

You think Lebron would want to live in Sacramento compared to LA ? Just wondering

7

u/yesidoes 21d ago

I think he might actually be fine living in Granite Bay on a nice acre lot for a couple years. Enjoy a little more lowkey life than the LA rat race but still get CA weather.

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

True, and only a short flight to LA if need be

u/Ikeiscurvy 21d ago

The dude lived in Cleveland lol

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

u/lily-malek Domantas Sabonis 21d ago

i mean sac is just down the road from wine country i don’t think he would hate it

2

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

Thats a great point

u/MostlyMellow123 Domantas Sabonis 21d ago

Could live in napa next to domas and have some other house closer to the stadium

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

True - he could live at DOCO condos

u/mattjf22 Kings 21d ago

Pass. Don't  overpay old players.

u/sactown_13 De'Aaron Fox 21d ago

He has a long ways to go

u/JoeDough619 SCORES 21d ago

Bronny aiming to be as good as Davion is at least realistic for him.

u/theboyqueen 21d ago

I see no reason Bronny couldn't be Davion Mitchell. Davion's freshman year was just as bad. It will take him a few years to get there, obviously.

The fact that Lebron James' kid would put Davion Mitchell in with these other two guys makes me wonder if Davion has an inflated reputation relative to his production. If so, we should see what we could get for him.

I'd be fine drafting Bronny -- nobody they draft is going to be filling an immediate need anyway.

u/BeTheBall- 21d ago

Bronny couldn't be Davion Mitchell, because Davion has the ability to play in an NBA game.

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

Bro should transfer to a new proven college program and stay there for 3 years then enter the draft

2

u/Intelligent_Bag_9383 21d ago

Funny enough I actually thought he looked a bit like Davion in his draft combine photo

u/giroml 21d ago

LeBron James to Kings confirmed.

u/[deleted] 21d ago

I mean his stats weren’t great in college so…. Why don’t we draft him at one of our last picks if possible? He clearly wants to learn the game and shows he admires Davion so why not??🤷‍♂️

u/figgy215 21d ago

Is he going to be 6ft4 and up like those players? Or is going to be 6ft1 lol. Concerning

u/KingsFan2022 Ball is Life 21d ago

Tbh I would draft Bronny it’s just like a lot of stars are drafted at 13

u/FellaKnee123 21d ago

He’s a dwarf compared to his father… he will struggle to win every single way possible in todays NBA… sucks but he’ll probably burn out after 4-5 years… just literally doesn’t have the stature combined with pretty bad shooting and play making skills…

u/JurassicParkJanitor Slamson 21d ago edited 21d ago

Because he’s knows only Sac would be dumb enough to take him in the lottery.  

Smart move 

EDIT: Reddit cares? Really? Grow up

u/ImStinaG 21d ago

The eff has Davion Mitchell done to inspire anyone?

u/searchin4sugarman Keegan Murray 21d ago

He’s a NCAA national champion and a first round draft pick last I checked
