Bronny James, the eldest son of NBA legend LeBron James, is under the microscope after his appearances in the NBA G League Winter Showcase. Playing for the South Bay Lakers, the Los Angeles Lakers’ G League affiliate, the 20-year-old guard showed glimpses of his potential but left scouts with concerns about his readiness for the next level.
Bronny had an uneven weekend at the showcase. In his first outing against the Greensboro Swarm, he filled the stat sheet with 16 points, four rebounds, five assists, and three steals, despite his team’s 98-90 loss. However, his performance took a nosedive in the following game. Against the Osceola Magic, James managed only six points on 3-of-7 shooting as the Lakers secured a 120-104 win.
Scouts’ verdict: work in progress
NBA insider Marc Stein recently shared feedback from scouts who observed Bronny’s performance at the showcase. The consensus is clear: the young guard needs extensive development, especially in his point guard skills.
“The unanimous view I heard from watching scouts at the Showcase is that James needs as much time as he can get in the G League to improve all aspects of his point guard play, from his floor game to (especially) his ability to make shots,” Stein wrote in his newsletter.

While Bronny has the athletic pedigree and work ethic to grow, the path ahead won’t be easy. If he hopes to follow in his father’s NBA footsteps, the G League will likely remain a crucial developmental stage. With scouts emphasizing his need for more time and refinement, the 2024-25 season could be pivotal for his future.
The spotlight is brighter than ever, but can Bronny rise to the occasion? Fans and critics alike will be watching closely as he continues his journey

Aaron Rodgers has made a statement on his past relationships that suggests he’s probably regretful.
The New York Jets quarterback has dated some famous women since making the step up to the NFL but apparently did not enjoy the scrutiny that came with the territory.
Rodgers dated actress Olivia Munn from 2014 to 2017, then hooked up with former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick before starting a relationship with another actress, Shailene Woodley.
Aaron and Woodley made it as far as engagement but eventually called things off.
While Rodgers might not have hated the actual relationships, he did not enjoy all the eyes they came with.
