VIDEO: LeBron James Has Great Answer When Asked About Possibility of Knicks Drafting Bronny
By Michael Luciano
The hype around LeBron James Jr., known as Bronny to most of us, has gotten so out of control that even Dad is starting to get fed up with it. After the Los Angeles Lakers took down the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden, James put down a question about Bronny eventually playing for the Knicks, citing the fact that he's a 14-year-old freshman in high school and the family has paid literally no attention to that possibility.
A reporter asked Bron about the Knicks potentially drafting Bronny.

Bron was more concerned about his next school project: “My son in the ninth grade, man."

Yeah, let's ask LeBron what it will be like if the Knicks, a team he has never played for, drafted his teenage son, which would come anywhere from five to eight years from now. Makes sense.
The younger James, currently starring alongside Zaire Wade at Sierra Canyon High School, has been in the subject, somehow, of scrutiny from fans. One even went and threw a piece of trash at him, which is a good way to get yourself excommunicated from the basketball world.

How about we all just agree to let this 14-year-old kid be, you know, a 14-year-old kid. Sure, he's going to get some added treatment from the media by virtue of being the son of one of the greatest ever to do it, but analyzing his every move is just undignified.
