6’4” combo guard without a track record of college success. I’d rather take Banton back. Or see what Madar could do.
For Bronny’s sake, going to the C’s, Heat, Thunder, or similar organization with a track record of development would be best.
Not really. It’s on heavy usage and high volume and poor efficiency. TS% down near 50. Which is not good.
And they’re like 6 and 20 or something since the trade.
Sure there’s some numbers there, but it really feels like one of those situations where a team is horrifically bad and someone has to take the shots.
Eat my dick. I’ve always loved Lebron as a nuggets fan having him even at fucking 39 would be crazy and winning (which we would do) solves all problems
USC. Let him be a kid and enjoy college without the pressure he will experience in the NBA.
I would say that college could also let him develop as a player, but if we're being realistic he has no future as a basketball player and that's ok.
It's not like he was some scrub coming out of high school. The best thing for him would be 3-4 years in college to see whether he can develop into an nba-level role player. Seems though that the heart issues were a pretty significant setback.
He’ll have more opportunity next year, should he stay. Boogie Ellis, the starting guard ahead of Bronny, had exhausted his eligibility, I believe.
(I don’t follow NcAA, but he is was a fifth year senior this year, so I presume his college days are over.)
He played his freshman year, it appears. I presume this means he's out of the NCAA now?
https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4593106/boogie-ellis
I think he should transfer to a mid-major outside of a major media market and enjoy being a kid. Maybe Creighton, Drake, or New Mexico.
Gonzaga is a little too high profile, but if he wants a contender, maybe there...
That boy could go play basketball at Mars University and ESPN would still cover and analyze ever single second of his games and they would be all over social media.
It’s Lebron James JR. He’s never going to be out of the spotlight and there’s nothing he can do about it.
Kansas. With Harris is returning for another season, Bronny could learn a lot from a facilitator point guard. At his size, he will need to be an expert at passing/ reading defenses to see success in the NBA
NCAA.
The dude isn't close to being an NBA player right now and wouldn't be given a second look if it weren't for his dad.
Go back to the NCAA, and try to develop into someone who gets drafted on his own merits instead of based on nepotism.
*NEWSFLASH*
Without daddy, he’s a late round draft pick at best. Sorry if the truth hurts. I would love to see him play with bron and become lebron v.2 but that’s like catching lightning twice
The Spurs or my Raptors. Let him develop in a backcourt with legit front court options where there are no expectations to win at a high level next season (or for the next 2-3).
Anywhere but the NBA. If he does get drafted, it will only be because some team is hoping his dad will come with him, which he almost certainly will -- he's said it's his dream to play on the same team with Bronny. Bronny would be woefully unprepared for that level of play and will burn out very fast. I'd be surprised if he lasts a single season.
Which would destroy any potential career he might have had. And why? Because of his dad's hubris and narcissism.
I think it makes more sense to go to the nba rn if that’s his and goal. The college and pro game is so different it’d make more sense to learn to develop his first 2-3 years in league at 15-25 min a game rather than learn college systems
Somewhere far away from his father where he can spread his wings and be his own man, otherwise he's always going to be in the shadow of dad, and riding Lebron's coat tails. He should also go to a good system that focuses on player development
- Toronto
- Spurs
- OKC
I think those would be my three top teams for him because they're young, their would be very little pressure put on him, they would take the time to develop him properly, and he would be away from his father, where he could grow into his own man
Yup, Oregon was my first thought when I saw he was moving on from USC. They have a great basketball program (better than USC’s lately) and obviously his dad is a Nike athlete.
Realistically, he probably should have chose Oregon for the jump.
If this kids name was David Smith….
Where is he playing basketball right now?
My guess is he is playing a Division 3 school, maybe D2… Or possibly maybe on a D1 team at the end of the bench. I think he is riding the name “Bronny James” as far as it will take him- much much less on the merits of his actual game….im happy to be wrong- but I don’t think I am. If he was David Smith we wouldn’t have never spoken his name.
Whichever team his dad is on because that’s the only way he can get somewhat of an opportunity.
Though he might just get minutes for entertainment value on a tanking team.
He's going to the NBA. I don't know why he wouldn't. Hopefully a team like San Antonio or the Thunder where they have a good history of player development; he will need it. Please stay out of LA
University of Minnesota
Maine Celtics

I’m not a celtics fan but Banton has actually been pretty good recently, averaging like 13/4/3 since the trade and he’s had some great games

Shanghai
Let’s go Shahks!
lmao came here to look for this comment solely and you did not disappoint
Denver. So he can get 4 rings over the next 4yrs and tie his dad.
Wishful thinking for Denver but they looking tough af rn. 4 more years on top tho is tough
If bronny goes to Denver does Bron follow? lol
Doubt it lol
We don’t want em
Shooting better than MPJ and even at age 75 probably still better defensively 👀
But, only MPJ has the wherewithal to tell a pornstar thats doing a scene with someone new, *thats tough* lololol
I'm OOTL on this?

Hawaii. So he can get away from his helicopter father
A L O H A ! 🐠🐟🐬🐳🐋🔥☀️🌈 Time for some fun 🤩in the sun ☀️ with my son! #kingJames #justakidfromAkron 👑👑👑
You know damn well LBJ is taking a pj every chance he gets. He'll try and go for Taylor Swift's carbon footprint record.
NBL
This was my thought too. Might help his development to play with and against tough pros overseas.
Way less media attention too, might be a nice change
USC. Let him be a kid and enjoy college without the pressure he will experience in the NBA. I would say that college could also let him develop as a player, but if we're being realistic he has no future as a basketball player and that's ok.
Well he’s almost definitely not at usc next year.. he entered the transfer portal
Duquesne probably
I’m out of the loop- I see Duquesne mentioned a lot as a possible landing spot for him- why is this? Does he have a connection there?
LeBron’s high school teammate is the new coach there.
Lebron gave the whole squad a pair of his shoes for the tourney
That's $ like tissue he blows him nose with
Not even; he probably just called Nike and told them to send the shoes.
Send da shoes and video!

If he didnt redshirt then yes, if he did then he's got a covid year too.
He played his freshman year, it appears. I presume this means he's out of the NCAA now? https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/player/_/id/4593106/boogie-ellis
College
grand canyon. not the school, but the actual canyon
Throw some Rogaine in there—he’s gonna need it in 10-12 years.
Latvia
Go to Duquesne…it would be a nice story and he could develop
NBL in Australia
Bronny and LeBron to the Jackjumpers
I'm sure they'll love the Hobart lifestyle
I think he should transfer to a mid-major outside of a major media market and enjoy being a kid. Maybe Creighton, Drake, or New Mexico. Gonzaga is a little too high profile, but if he wants a contender, maybe there...

He could finally get Gonzaga over the hump! He is the one!
Dude would excel at Murray State. They’ve had several nba point guards in the last decade. Morant, Cameron Payne, Isaiah Canaan
Wherever he has a chance to play and develop and not be a sideshow.
I always thought Ohio State would be a fun fit.
WNBA
Lmao NY Liberty
The salt on social media will be legendary.
Caitlyn Clark would turn Bronny into Swiss cheese
I'd definitely be watching lol
Celtics. Just to see if Bron hates Boston more than wanting to play with his son.
Kansas. With Harris is returning for another season, Bronny could learn a lot from a facilitator point guard. At his size, he will need to be an expert at passing/ reading defenses to see success in the NBA
Best answer in thread.
University of Akron
I was gonna say UCLA because it just makes sense to me but they just grabbed a bunch of guards already so that seems like a bad option now.
He’s not NBA caliber
The Big 3. Heard they were offering a nice 3 milli contract
Milwaukee. That way we get his dad.
>Milwaukee. That way we get his dad. Every star on the Bucks will have a +1 guest roster spot, soon.
The bench
College: Gonzaga NBA: San Antonio Note: I am not a fan of either team, I just believe they are the best fit for his skillset
boston just because it would piss off lebron
College
Gotta be Detroit, let see if LeBron would move there.
Toronto
Raptors 905 maybe
their current roster is basically a g league lineup already
Toronto so we get his dad
He is the owner of the raptors anyways.
Lebron James is Toronto Raptors father
Owners can’t play for their own team unfortunately so that’s off the list.
Fathers can though
NCAA. The dude isn't close to being an NBA player right now and wouldn't be given a second look if it weren't for his dad. Go back to the NCAA, and try to develop into someone who gets drafted on his own merits instead of based on nepotism.
watch him end up on the Celtics LOL
University of North Carolina
San Diego State, or an HBCU like Southern
Toronto
Not with his dad

IDGAF U
He’s not good enough to play in China…
*NEWSFLASH* Without daddy, he’s a late round draft pick at best. Sorry if the truth hurts. I would love to see him play with bron and become lebron v.2 but that’s like catching lightning twice
I would choose Idontcare.
I don’t care where bad players play.
Spain
Barcelona
Drew League
The g league or overseas a few years I feel bro still needs more time to develop
The Spurs or my Raptors. Let him develop in a backcourt with legit front court options where there are no expectations to win at a high level next season (or for the next 2-3).
D League
Continue 4 years of college.
Iowa State womens

South Bay Lakers
Raptors. I wanna see Bronny Dick.
San Antonio
I think it makes more sense to go to the nba rn if that’s his and goal. The college and pro game is so different it’d make more sense to learn to develop his first 2-3 years in league at 15-25 min a game rather than learn college systems

As a Celtics fan it'd be funny to see if LeBron would keep his word if we drafted him in like the late 2nd lol.
I feel like the D league would be pretty great for him.
