Being the son of one of the most accomplished and successful basketball stars in the world can be tough sometimes. Bronny James is the oldest son of four-time NBA Champion and Los Angeles Lakers icon LeBron James. It’s not easy to deal with the massive expectations that come with being the son of the all-time leading scorer. Recently, Bronny was the 17th pick in the mock NBA draft. He was not happy with the results.

Bronny James is set to feature in USC’s NCAA basketball team, the USC Trojans, next season. He’ll become eligible to play in the topmost echelon of the sport, the NBA, from the subsequent season. It remains to be seen if he’ll stand up to the expectations put on him by his critics.

Bronny James’ response to the mock draft

Bronny James did not like the fact that he was the 17th pick in the mock draft. The NBA draft is the biggest day in the life of a young basketball star. Bronny’s father LeBron was the first pick of the 2003 NBA Draft. He is sure determined to shun all his critics and prove them wrong once he enters the league.

He said, “Can’t wait to prove y’all wrong.” It’ll be interesting to see if he can prove his critics wrong. His response garnered a lot of attention from fans on social media. Even Shaquille O’Neal‘s son came out in support of the young starlet. Shareef reuploaded the post including Bronny’s comments on his social media account. It’ll be interesting to see how Bronny performs the next time around.
