LeBron’s Message To Bronny After Jaylen Brown Called Him ‘Not A Pro’… – he’d be sent home by LeBron by now anyways lol | HO
So, after Jaylen Brown commented that he doesn’t think Bronny James has what it takes to be a pro, LeBron James gave his son some crucial advice. He reminded Bronny to stay aggressive and not get discouraged even if his shots aren’t falling. This mindset seems to be paying off for Bronny, who has come out strong in the Lakers’ Summer League games, showing growth and confidence despite the criticism.
Chad Henne recently tweeted his support for Bronny, especially after Jaylen Brown’s remarks. Henne praised Bronny’s performance, stating that he looked like a pro during his impressive 13-point, 5-rebound, 3-assist game last night. The tweet was a boost of encouragement for Bronny as he continues to work hard and prove his doubters wrong.

Jaylen Brown Addresses Video Seemingly Showing Him Say Bronny Isn’t a Pro While Watching Him Play
Fans think Jaylen Brown took a shot at Bronny James during his Summer League game, and now the NBA champion is trying to clear up the confusion.
On Monday, Bronny took the court as the Los Angeles Lakers took on the Boston Celtics in Las Vegas for Summer League play, and Brown had a front-row seat next to Angel Reese and Kysre Gondrezick. At one point, cameras caught Brown conversing with Reese and Gondrezick, giving his thoughts on Bronny’s play.
“I don’t think Bronny [James] is a pro,” Brown appeared to say to the women. Gondrezick seemingly replied, “I think he’ll be on the G-league team for sure.”
Brown apparently said, “I don’t think so; I think because of his name, he’ll be on the Lakers.”

Shortly after the clip went viral, Brown retweeted it and wrote a caption where he saluted LeBron for having his son join him in the NBA and said that Bronny has the resources to become a successful player.
“It’s a flex to have your son alongside you in the nba it reflects greatness and longevity !Bronny has all the tools around him to be successful I look forward to watching his growth,” he wrote.

Bronny played 25 minutes in Monday night’s game, which the Lakers lost 88-74. He scored 2 points on 1-for-5 shooting, three rebounds, one assist, and two turnovers.
He also went 0-for-3 from beyond the arc, making his Summer League total from the three-point line an abysmal 0-for-15. Bronny is currently averaging five points, four rebounds and one assist throughout the Summer League.
Bronny’s cold performance throughout the Summer League has brought out the critics who feel he isn’t ready for the league. According to his dad LeBron, though, he doesn’t care about what people have to say about him.
“He does not care about nobody. He doesn’t even listen to that stuff,” said LeBron. “He’s like the coolest. He’s like the complete opposite of his dad. His dad will say something. Bronny does not care. … Everything that’s being said about him, he really does not care.”
