Realistic expectations for Bronny James' rookie season with the Lakers | NBA Today 

ESPN coverage next nba season gonna be exciting. -First father son starting line up -first father son turnover in a game -first father son to score in a game -first father son to tie shoelaces in fourth quarter -first father son….

Hope he's made of the right stuff cause the trash talk he's gonna hear on the court gonna be crazyyy.

Same expectation that espn will hire actual sports reporters someday: zero chance.

they rehearsed that talk lol

Bronny better be making a good impression on those Beijing Ducks scouts

The fact a number 55th pick is being talked about more than any other player drafted is wild

Who wants to see 40 year man play hoops against younger players 😂

The brief highlight clips I saw on draft night told me he belongs on the Vancouver Bandits of the Canadian Elite Basketball League.

Praying he does well, I think he's gonna shock us

He is already a top 5 defender on the team. He moves really well on defense and is extremely athletic. That alone should get him on the floor. He will take Gabe Vincent’s spot in the rotation. His offense will come later. Watch him ball. College has sets. NBA has more free flowing offense which inflates stats. Luka averaged 10 before the NBA. Let that sink in…

They need to give bronny that Caitlin clark treatment 😅

LBJ, the Lakers and the NBA are complete jokes.

Lebron wont send bronny to the G-League cuz Liangelo ball got stuck there and never made it out of the G-League till this day

Malika lookin 🔥

ESPN gonna be all over this guy’s nuts all season and ignore the top picks. 😂

Your hard work has paid off....

Starter 35mins per game😂😂😂

His college career was a mix of Stephen A. Smith and LeVar Ball in college. Pretty much the same stats.

Bronny is gonna be great

Tickets sales trough the roof

I said thr he is a student of the game he going to make a impact

4.8 PPG and 37% FG? 🤣 G league is what we should expect

Did Perk just say that frfr?😂

Lebrin gonA scapegoat his son like he does all his teammates

If bronny had no association with LeBron, how many rounds of the nba draft would there have to be until he was picked? I have a feeling that number would be huge. Maybe 20th round if not higher, especially when you put the heart issue Into play. Teams don't touch players like that

We’ll see in summer league

get donovan mitchells trainer, dude is the same height, 6'1 without shoes

Why would he not be benched

Bronny and Lebron are going to destroy teams next year. Bronny really is going to be the next big thing.

Not even one day into bronnys tenure, and lebron is already sleeping with his mom 😮

Bronny will have a child this year and lebron will play with his grandchild and this will be the first Father,son,grandson in the NBA.

Probably G League more than NBA. I wanna see him ball in the Summer League tho. I think he can carve out a good career, depends on his work ethic and drive to be successful

Atlanta Hawks BIGGEST MISTAKE not DRAFT Bronny James Jr in 1st overall pick 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂

Espn can't even be honest anymore.. puppets😂

Malika andrews is dating this white dude dave

When was the last time Espn ran a full day on expectations of a 2nd rounder….. I expect Bronny to play like 5min during garbage time, I expect LBJ’s influence to shield him against no-name players, and I expect the Lakers to be in the play-in again as they are currently constructed.

Wish the kid much luck for a long successful career

cant wait to see bronny get welcomed by fellow nba players on the court!!!

Dad, pass the ball😢😢.

“Better be out here scouting too” Bron too funny

I gotta avoid ESPN for a while

There are NBA players who can’t wait to eat this boy for lunch on offense and defense . 😂

LeGM does it again 🎉

Y’all don’t listen… they just said he WILL NOT sign a 2-way contract. Meaning he will be on the roster

Surreal that the 55th pick in the draft is the one getting all the press - a superstar that scored all of 4 pts a game in his illustrious college career. Forget hoops, get on the father/son three-ring circus.

To the G-League. That will be his rookie season--For somebody who can only score 4 pts/game in college, and 6 in high school!

What parent doesn't try and help their kids with their career? It is what it is

If thansis can play in the nba and average 0.9 ppg bronny can come in and be a star in his role

0ppg, 0 apg 0 rbg, 80 claps

Bronny will be controlled opposition 2.0 like lebron promoting HRC while tweeting for pizza

I think bronny is going to shock alot of people who think he is a bust , he is already a freak athlete due to LeBrons genetics and he is already getting the special privilege of practicing with professional athletes including his own dad instead of finding it by himself in college . I think the lakers know what they doing. They not going to just "make history" and have him ride the bench

LeBron will want Bronny to play with him and AD plus shooters. That means he is going to start eventually before this season is over.

This is what will happen in the first match the world will be ecstatic at the story of Bronny and LeBron playing together in the NBA the whole world will talk about it and make people cry with this wonderful story. . From the 2nd match the press will assassinate this kid because they will say: he doesn't know how to play he doesn't have the level. No what is happening is not normal this nepotism at the highest level and above all putting so much pressure on the shoulders of a young person is not doing them any favors.

It’s only two ways it can go. It can Go Up or it can Go Down. This gone be very interesting to see how this unfold

And when Bronny plays as terrible as we all know he will LeBron fanboys will make every excuse for him in the book.

They gone give him rookie of the year just watch

Never seen 55 draft pick getting so much press. The media frenzy is beyond pathetic, and ALL of ESPN/FOX are playing their part to keep their gig.

If Bronny stayed in college, improved his game, and became a legitimate 1st round prospect sought after by multiple teams, then he would pretty much assure himself a roster spot with more leeway by an organization to improve. Him rushing his way into the league going in the 2nd round, it will be harder for him to move up the ladder unless he goes crazy in the g league. The talent is there but he was just a freshman coming off of a major medical scare. Why not have patience?

I guess the Daddy Day Care lakers will be the ESPN calling card for the next 6 months. Yawn.

Is ESPN's corporate mission "to embarrass themselves fawning over Lebron and all related BS" ?

imagine the happiness bron and savannah is feeling right now, their precious first son literally almost lost his life , and now will play on the NBA regardless of the narrative surfacing on the media, Bron is playing with his son in the N effing B... A.... this is like a second chance in life for bronny, how good is that.

I got lakers winning less than 35 games

Anyone who thinks bronny isn’t going to get minutes is delusional. LeBron is going to make sure he plays 15 minutes per game minimum

I’m so sick of lebron whining to the lakers management he needs to man up his son won’t make a difference let lebron and cry 😂

tbh lebron is worth a throwaway spot for whoever he wants. nobody plays there he doesnt want anyway.

2:59 😂

This is not fair to the hundreds of kids better than him

I think they spelled Zaccharie Risacher's name wrong because you'd be wondering what the first overall pick will do in the NBA, not a late second round pick. Edey would be a more interesting topic of discussion.

To God be the glory!

If he can give 5-8 mins of full court ball pressure and hit an open shot or two a night that’ll be a success in the spring.

He should have stayed in college. He's not ready for the professional league.

Can’t what to see the father and son play together

I expect Bronny to average 25 claps and 10 high fives per games! Bronny will be hands down better than Thanasis Antetokounmpo! 😊

Le nepotism

For anyone to think Lebron hasn’t had his son playing with real nba players is lost ! This man and son been cooking in the lab

Bronny's gonna have it rough the next couple of years

nba is crazy, get out nba

Bronny James is gonna win Snow Bunny Rookie Of the Year. I can see the tear in Dr Umar left eye as I speak. 😅😅😅

Realistic expectations?? Bench player in the G-League

ESPN: "I don't want to hear about nepotism!" Currently has 10 videos about Bronny James put out within the last 2 days because of who his father is.........

Bronny went from being 6’3 to 6’1. We just gonna ignore that he was lying😮

The hate that boy will receive on and off the court. I just hope he's ready for it. His game is not that good even for G league. Had he average about 15points a game people wouldn't even question how he got into the nba.

If Bronny turns the ball over will lebron get madd..?

15mins 5.0 ppg 3.0 ast 2.0 reb

Where is talen horton tucker now? I’m being serious?

If he a bust he was picked 55th who cares if he a 6 -7th man hit on a 55th pick , if he ends up being a jrue holiday Darius garland kinda player they hit on a 55th …so who cares no expectations

Blooming when you're not looking

In the past 2 months, espn youtube subscribers went up by about 2 millions, with Caitlin Clark and prince bron Jr dramas. Lakers-Espn already has the video title made. HISTORY MADE. FATHER SON PLAYING THE NBA.😂😂😂 These ain't 2 million new SPORTS fans😂😂 They're here for the espn car crash reality TV show. You know what, bring it. Bring on trash tv on espn. Espn ain't REPORTING ON SPORTS ANYMORE. Have yall seen the talking head clowns on first take. I keep saying Ramona and woj are friends with Jeannie buss, the owner. Rich Paul and magic johnson are the two snitches who keep leaking "scoops" to Ramona and woj to the MEDIA. Jj reddick is a RU-vidr 😂😂😂 turned assistant head coach to lebron. Espn will CHRONICLE EACH STEP PRINCE JR takes on his nba journey... through the g league. It's trash to be trash tv on Lakers-Espn.

He's a manufactured player. Just call it how it is. They're surrounding him of Yes Mans and Womans. Just look at how you guys are covering him. 😂 Big Flop and Lil Flop gona make next season a clown show for the Lakers

Bonny James isn't really good enough for the NBA. If it wasn't for LeBron James, he probably would be in the NBA.

Go get them bronny

"the work begins..." unlike the majority of this NBA draft class, whose work began a decade ago to get to this point

Greetings guys. First take today kinda was openly promoting or saying that its ok for nepotism to take place. Cant believe SA allowed and supported Perk on it. White black or brown and yellow if its wrong its wrong. I dont know if this is officially so with the bronny draft but if so its not a positive and should not be openly accepted nor talked about as a good something.

Sad people praying on this kids downfall. I hope he does well and shines like alot of the rooks coming in. They the next generation we gonna watch so let's HOPE we see some good basketball

Watch Bronnie have a 20 some year career and Lebron plays til he is 60+. Lebron going to play until he gets his own heart attack.

This is the highest example of the kid who under played gets a trophy, too. Sad! Feel sorry for the true players he bumped due to his name. LA Fakers.

I just Middle class you tuber but wish i bronny James draft nba also lucky playin old man lebron James and with Lakers one best franchise in nba the Lakers

Malika Andrews and SAS need to cover the JJ reddick racist story for the next few weeks

Can someone wake me up when the James and WNBA aren't in the top 5 of non football stories? Thanks ahead of time

Dammm let leave the kid alone
