Bronny James was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft, and fans are giddy about how good the young player looks in a LA Lakers uniform.
Pictures of LeBron James’s youngster are becoming widely popular as Bronny Mania maintains an iron grip over the Internet.
The images of Bronny James were released at the same time that he revealed the Juice WRLD inspiration behind his choice of number. In the meantime, Skip Bayless made fun of LeBron, Bronny’s well-known father, for his “PR Smoke” deal choice.
Fans are happy to share their opinions on social media about the Lakers’ newest jersey wearer, who is receiving a lot of attention for his pick.

Reactions To Bronny’s New Look
Bronny James’ debut in the Lakers’ nine-number jersey did not impress everyone.
“Why is this getting so much hype? A reader commented on X, saying, “Literally wouldn’t of made the league if his dad wasn’t LeBron lol.”
Another admirer said, “Great deal,” after seeing Bronny.
Another fan remarked, “That’s Nick Van Exel’s number,” referring to the well-known former guard for the Lakers and Cincinnati Bearcats.
Another reader said, “I can’t wait to see him shine in the Summer League.”
Last season, James was eighth among the USC basketball team’s top scorers under head coach Andy Enfield. He only averaged 4.8 points and played fewer than 20 minutes a game when playing for the Trojans in the Pac-12 Conference, which is a major reason why he is getting flak.
Bronny James earned the right to be drafted based on hard effort and the plus-basketball qualities he demonstrated during his time with USC basketball, according to new Lakers coach JJ Redick, who made this announcement to the assembled media on Tuesday during his inaugural press conference.
There is skepticism among many fans, but that’s part of what makes sports so amazing. Starting this summer, James will have the chance to show his critics who’s boss on the basketball court. And don’t think that his well-known father, LeBron James, won’t be rooting for and observing his new colleague.
