Bronny James is discovering just how difficult life can be as a professional athlete.

The former USC guard has joined his father in the NBA but is perhaps not being utilized as much as he expected. He’s also realized that going out on the road can be tricky, as it separates one from the people they cherish the most.

Bronny was missing his girl, Parker Whitfield, while the Los Angeles Lakers were on a long road trip and had no qualms over sharing that fact with the world.

The Lakers rook took to social media to send a heartfelt message to his significant other while on the road with his team. With the Western Conference side traveling to Phoenix, Toronto, Cleveland, Detroit, and Memphis before returning to L.A. for a game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Bronny was feeling the distance.

He posted a photo of himself and Parker posing in front of the Disney castle, captioning it, “I miss my baby, Love you so much.”

Bronny James Hasn’t Won Fans Over

NBA fans take every opportunity to criticize the young guard, and they had some words for him after seeing his post, with one referring to him as the “worst player in the NBA.”

“Bronny just misses playing regular minutes,” someone else commented.

“We don’t care fam stick go basketball,” another wrote.

It appears that Bronny James will have a hard time winning fans over, as most of them don’t believe he was drafted on merit but rather as part of a publicity stunt adding to the uniqueness of his father’s already illustrious career.

Fortunately, he should have time on his side. He hopes to have Parker remain at his side, too.

Tom Brady may be reined in by FOX Sports following his awkward comment about Matt LaFleur that had the internet in stitches.

The former NFL quarterback called Sunday’s game between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions and liked what he saw where Green Bay’s head coach was concerned as he waxed lyrical over the 45-year-old Michigan native.

“Look at that perfect little moustache, goatee that he’s got,” Brady said right before a third-and-three. “We can’t see his hair today. But I was so impressed when I saw him in the tunnel, such a handsome guy. he said he spends $100 a week to keep himself looking like that.”

Kevin Burkhardt, his booth partner, could only offer a “Wow.”
