In great difficulty on the field with the Lakers, Bronny James was nevertheless able to celebrate a certain victory in recent hours in the Summer League. A victory that generated much criticism from fans, but also a viral reaction from LeBron.

There are few sources of satisfaction at the start of summer for Lakers fans. Beyond the rather dismal offseason achieved so far by the franchise, the latter’s results in the Summer League are also not something to be enthusiastic about. Beaten four times in four matches, the young Angelino troops cannot really count on a great Bronny James.

Bronny James slashed for his triumph, LeBron goes against the grain

Opposed this Monday to the Celtics, Bronny continued his sad streak from the last few games.

Still weighed down by his clumsy shooting, the young guard was also the subject of viral and scathing comments from Jaylen Brown , who was sitting on the edge of the court for this game.

And to make matters worse, his recent victory in a tournament organized in parallel earned him harsh criticism on social networks:

Bronny James won the Call of Duty Summer League tournament after defeating Grant Williams in the finals. He took home a custom Call of Duty championship belt and $10,000.🏆

He better be in the gym working on his game and trying to improve because right now he’s playing like crap.

Unlike most Internet users, LeBron wanted to celebrate his son’s victory via his Instagram story:

LeBron James: Ayyyeeeee!!! He’s really hot on this play! @bronny🔥🔥🔥

While his performance on the court clearly left something to be desired, Bronny James couldn’t even celebrate his Call of Duty exploits without being bombarded with criticism. Luckily for him, LeBron made sure to congratulate him like a good father.
