| Only Lebron can get people riled up over the 55th pick in the draft lol….a pick this low no one on this forum has ever cared about before until Bronny became a possibility. |

My money is on him getting a roster spot. And LeBron getting a 3 year max deal. They don’t call him the King for nothing. |
Offer Bron MLE money. |

Bronny and LeBron are officially the NBAs all time highest scoring father-son duo with over 40,000 points |
If we count by family, Steph, dell and Seth have 1000 more points, lol |

Jfc guys its the 55th pick. Bronny has good upside. He has a solid shot, plays tough defense, and has high basketball IQ and doesnt make too many mistakes on the court. I think he has a shot of developing into a rotation player if he puts the work in. He can definitely carve himself out a nice role in the league if he sticks to it. I like the pick, nepotism aside

Celtics and other contending teams are perfectly fine with Lakers taking over those conversations while they're competing for a title. |

It’s not just the pick. Second rounders aren’t guaranteed a roster spot. A lot of them get cut during camp or get on a two-way these days. Now we have two new players getting a roster spot. Who will be the odd man/men out? |

I’m not even sure if it’s true. They said it as a joke on the radio. How many points did Joe Bryant score? |

All the Bronny James conversation will last up until he plays his first game next to LeBron, be it in garbage minutes or whatever.
After that, he's expected to be an NBA Player, because there won't be anything else to talk about or milk him for.

| What kind of contract will he get? A second round pick can get up to 4 years can’t they? |

The only way that happens is if Bronny has the same playoff minutes James Wiseman did when the Warriors won their title.

From the on-the-court basketball standpoint, it's a pretty meh pick. But it's unlikely any player at 55 is going to make that much of an impact.
But from the marketing/business perspective, it creates talking points, free media, news/interest stories which all lead to more revenue for the Lakers. And ultimately, that's a win for ownership. |

At least Bronny is guaranteed to play in an NBA game, maybe even start. Not many draftees can say that.

So much anger over a 55th pick.
Let’s see how he develops.
Glad he bounced back after his heart scare last summer. His freshman year was basically a throw away season |

Pretty cool moment for LeBron and his son. My only advice for Bronny is to stay miles away from social media.
