Bronny James Drafted by Los Angeles Lakers
One of the Most Scrutinized Amateur Basketball Players
Taken 55th Overall in the 2024 NBA Draft
After one season at Southern California, Bronny James has entered the NBA draft. The son of NBA legend LeBron James, Bronny was taken 55th overall by the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night. He was one of the most highly scrutinized amateur basketball players of the last decade.
As a senior for Sierra Canyon in California, Bronny averaged 142 points, 55 rebounds, 24 assists, and 18 steals. He was named the Gatorade National Player of the Year and led Sierra Canyon to a state championship.
Bronny's father, LeBron, is the NBA's all-time leading scorer and a four-time champion. He is considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time.
Bronny is expected to be a role player for the Lakers. He is a talented scorer and passer, but he needs to improve his defense and rebounding. The Lakers are hoping that he can develop into a valuable contributor.
