Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

The eldest son of LeBron James, Bronny averaged 14.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.8 steals as a senior for Sierra Canyon in California and was a consensus four-star recruit. He was a McDonald's All-American and played in the Jordan Brand Classic and Nike Hoop Summit in 2023. He committed to USC, but at a practice in July ahead of his freshman season, James collapsed after experiencing cardiac arrest caused by a congenital heart defect. He was released from the hospital a few days later and ultimately got some action for the Trojans after missing the first eight games of the 2023-24 campaign. James averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 0.8 steals in 19.4 minutes across 25 appearances (six starts) while shooting 36.6% overall, 26.7% on 3-pointers and 67.6% on free throws. He improved his draft stock with a stellar shooting display at the combine. James excels in catch-and-shoot situations and shows great energy and instincts on defense. At 6-foot-2, he lacks size at the NBA level, but his athleticism is considered elite. James can handle the ball and is a willing passer but isn't a true point guard. James projects to be a 3-and-D player at the NBA level, drawing comparisons to De'Anthony Melton. However, given his lack of experience in college, James may need to develop in the NBA G League. James' defensive prowess has drawn comparisons to Patrick Beverley and Jrue Holiday, too.

Expected to mostly play in G League

ANALYSIS
James started Summer League slowly but finished strong. Ultimately, this news isn't unexpected. Many second-round picks begin their careers primarily in the G League, and James still needs polish to his game.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could spend rookie year in G League
GLos Angeles Lakers
July 6, 2024
James could spend the majority of his rookie year playing in the G League, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN speculates.
ANALYSIS
James was the 55th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, and while there has been a lot of talk regarding his development due to him being LeBron James' eldest son, the Lakers are looking to block the outside noise centered around him. It wouldn't be surprising to see James spending most of the campaign with the South Bay Lakers despite signing a four-year contract with the organization.
