Analyst destroys Bronny James: 'He's not an NBA player'

Bronny James has gotten off to a rough start in summer league play this month. In four games, he has shot a combined 7-of-31 from the field and missed all 15 of his 3-point attempts, and some are starting to get impatient with him.

The son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James was taken with the No. 55 pick in last month’s draft. Plenty feel that nepotism was the only reason why the younger James was drafted by L.A., or even drafted at all, especially considering the weak freshman year he had at the University of Southern California.

Analyst Craig Carton said on “The Carton Show” that the younger James has been “exposed” and is “not an NBA player.” He also said the 19-year-old is taking playing time away from other summer league players who are more deserving of playing time (h/t The Cold Wire).

Carton did admit that the younger James is a strong athlete and a good defender. But in his mind, the guard doesn’t deserve to be on an NBA roster.

Perhaps the younger James will eventually become a serviceable NBA player. But right now, it looks like perhaps he should’ve stayed in school for at least one more season.
