Bronny James finally shows signs of life in Summer League Lakers vs Hawks game
After so much pressure during the Summer League, Bronny James finally had his breakout game with the LakersBronny James was having quite the forgettable Summer League presentation for the Lakers, even NBA champion Jaylen Brown was caught on a lip readong moment saying he doesn’t think Bronny is a pro. So much vitriol and so much disrespect for a kid who survived cardiac arrest last year and still decided to get himself that added pressure of playing for the same team his father represents. Bronny could’ve easily chosen to play another year in college to get more playing time with kids his age but he decided to take the hard road. He knew perfectly well that making this decision would mean he was going to get attacked by absolutely everybody. And the initial games with the Lakers in this Summer League have been painful to watch.On Wednesday’s game against the Atlanta Hawks, Bronny James finally showed the world a little bitof what he is capable of. The bookies didn’t have high hopes for Bronny James to score more than 10 points in the game, he already had 9 at half time so all of those bookies were in for a massive loss tonight. During the first half, we got to see the versatility of Bronny’s game. He got a beautiful lay-up that leftpeople astonished and even scored his first three-pointer as a Laker. But the very best was saved for last and he even added some extra suspense near the end for those who decided to betin his favor this evening.By the second half, Bronny got the best for last as he scored a clutch three-pointer that gave the Lakers the momentary draw. He finished the game with 12 points, one rebound, and one assist. Within the tea, Bronny was the second highest scorer just behind Colin Castleton’s 17 points. At the end, these Laers won with an 87-86 result with that Bronny James clutch three-pointer that allowd the Lakers to tie the game when they needed it the most. A single good game won’t scare off the critics but it’s a great first step towards finding his footing amid all the pressure he has experienced lately.
