Le4-2-2
Zero turnovers, POINT GOD. End of discussion.
Knecht lucky asf Bronny is there is absorb all the hate
Wemby shot 2-13 in his first summer league game
Hinson was a sniper. I want to see more of him this summer.
-15 as well. Arms on the Kings was going tf off tho
he’s as raw as can be honesty ik bron wanted to play with him but the addition years in college would of been good for him. His development will be one of the Lakers main concerns for the next 2 years tho that should help but he’s super far from being impactful currently he can be tho.
Got his collegiate average!
Bronny really loves that 4-2-2 statline 😆😆
3-4 of those jumpers were in and out, his form looks good. I was surprised by his ability to create a shot. Defensive instincts are good but he needs to watch those back cuts.
The way this sub was talking I expected him to be played off the floor like some random ymca bum, but that was not at all the case
I honestly felt like Bronny wasn’t that bad, despite what the stats say. He took good shots within the flow of the offense that mostly didn’t drop. He passed the ball a lot and generated good looks.
Some of the open shots he set up were bricked so he missed out on some potential assists. He had solid defence with the ability to consistently stay in front of his man, some good contests and a lot of deflections that weren’t steals.
He also had the one steal that lead to easy fast break points for the Lakers. Overall, he genuinely showed some promise and I am interested to see how he goes in the rest of summer league.
4-2-2 the Goated stat line to get the Lakers another chip.
Look he looked like bronny, been watching him since all his HS games were on youtube. Looks great running the court in transition, makes great passes but just doesn’t score.
I feel like I’ve seen a hundred posts in my feed about him today and he had 4 points on 2-9 shooting lol.
Blake Hinson greatest Laker of all time.
It’s just one game and a long summer. But why is ESPN sending me notifications when he makes a layup
Why did I get 4 ESPN notifications about a second rounder who went 2 for 9 and had a team worst plus/minus IN SUMMER LEAGUE?
At some point coming up the Hawks & Wizards play each other in Summer League, which means the first and second picks will play each other.
Instead of promoting that ESPN/NBA promoted the summer league debut of the 55th pick in the draft lol. I mean I get it, but it’s still hilarious.
Stuffing the stat sheet
Once Bron is done using Bronny as a legacy boost for himself he’s going to get dropped so damn fast.
Honestly Dalton looks way worse from a statline. I have no idea how they played since I didn’t watch this game, but if I looked at the score card the guy chosen at 17 to be their sniper going 3 for 12 is a way bigger issue than the kid they gave a favor job too going 2 for 9.
Dead ass. I thought it was gonna be worse than that.
Already matched his college average in stats. No dropoff in production at the next level.
0-2 free throws. He really is his son
FYI for those who don’t know, Kings are running 2 different CA Classic teams at the same time. This was against the Summer League B-Team.
LeBron on Bronny’s first bucket: “that was tough.”
Bron they’re all going to be tough 💀
1 point per year of contract.
Wait that’s it? I got like 12 in-game ESPN notifications about what he was doing so I assumed he was having a super highly productive game.
I got more ESPN notifications about Bronny than points scored.
Wemby had a slow start in summer league as well
Not bad for a mascot.
