All eyes are on Bronny James, the son of LeBron James, as he embarks on his NBA career, and everyone is eager to see if he will live up to the hype surrounding him.
Being the son of one of the greatest basketball players ever is a heavy thing to deal with, and it could lead to a sense of entitlement. But although plenty are skeptical that the younger James even belongs in the NBA, by all accounts, he has a healthy attitude.
During summer league play, he got off to a very rough start, especially with his shooting. But he started to find the range in his last two games to give people some hope that perhaps he will become a useful player.

As the No. 55 pick in last month’s draft, he was given a four-year, $7.9 million contract to be a member of the Los Angeles Lakers’ regular roster. If he does indeed become a viable NBA player, it would validate at least some of the attention he has gotten while giving the franchise a young contributor, something it needs more of.
