‘The Bronny James Experiment Is Getting Out of Control,’ ‘Embarrassing’ — NBA World Loses Faith in Lakers Guard As Preseason Lowlights Keep Piling Up
Bronny James’ struggles continue to mount as he enters Year 3, raising questions about his NBA future. James went scoreless while committing 4 turnovers in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 101-89 preseason loss to the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday in Las Vegas, leaving him with more giveaways (12) than points (11) through four exhibition outings.
Bronny James, the 22-year-old son of NBA legend LeBron, is facing mounting criticism as his struggling preseason performance continues. In just four exhibition games, the Lakers guard has managed only 11 points, but has committed a whopping 12 turnovers, a performance that has left many in the NBA world questioning his worth to the team.
James is averaging just 2.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game over the past four preseason outings, with his shooting percentages coming in at a disappointing 26.7% overall and 14.3% from beyond the arc. His recent exhibition loss to the Golden State Warriors saw him commit four turnovers while failing to score a single point, leaving him with a team-worst minus-18 plus-minus rating in just 11 minutes off the bench.
Some have even gone as far as to label him as "the worst NBA player I’ve ever seen" and question whether he deserves a roster spot.
