NBA (DR)

Back in uniform this Friday to face the Rockets, Bronny James once again showed himself to be somewhat in difficulty. Forced to face the facts after the fact, the young guard delivered a reaction full of frankness and clairvoyance.

The matches follow one another and are similar for Bronny James.

Already appearing twice in the Lakers jersey as part of the California Classic, the 55th pick of the last Draft made his debut this Friday at the Las Vegas Summer League.

Opposed for the occasion to the Rockets, he offered himself some notable highlights, in particular during the first minutes of the match:

Bronny James cashes in on his Summer League level

While he has so far kept his coach’s confidence, he who was once again a starter in recent hours, Bronny remains prey to a major lack of confidence.

Indeed, he only scored 3 of his 14 attempted shots against Houston… and not even any of his 3-pointers.

Enough to tarnish his overall performance (8 points, 5 rebounds, 2 interceptions) and force him to draw up a rather inglorious assessment of his current form:

Bronny James: I feel like I’m in a bit of a bad place right now.

It’s impossible to go against the 19-year-old guard, whose clumsiness continues to pollute his game and draw mockery on social media. All he can do is hope that the latter will abandon him in the coming days, but especially in view of his first official steps in the NBA. Until then, his shooting record only illustrates the lull he admits to going through:

Bronny’s cumulative stats over his 3 Summer League matches: 15 points, 6/26 shooting, 0/12 on 3pts

Still weighed down by his shooting skills, Bronny James particularly suffered this Friday against the Rockets. Enough to force him to make these comments tinged with frustration and to hope that the wheel will finally turn concerning him.
