    I give it 2-3 years till he is a rotation player. Just based on this team now. By then, he could average 8-10 but play great D. He can easily be a Derrick White. He can play

  2. litlegoblinjr

    The people saying Bronny isn’t worth a draft pick are gonna be the same people blaming Rich Paul for not giving their teams the chance to draft Bronny

  3. fostyinthebuilding

    He’s got athleticism and honestly that’s kind of what we are missing on the team lmao

  4. ![gif](giphy|dSJDldWeIUyrONZrUt|downsized)

    Good joke! He’s not going to grow any taller or get any faster, and I’m pretty sure he’s not going to turn into a sharp shooter, so I’m not expecting much.

  5. CabbageStockExchange

    Sounds about right I felt he needed 2-3 years in the g league and will be a serviceable role player for years.

  6. SellingPapierMache

    I think in 2.5 yrs bronny could easily be a starter on a 20-win team during the first year of the rebuild

    How many stocks do I really have in stock eh?!

    1, 2, 3, 4, 5 + 5 eh!

    Year 1 G-league

    Year 2 is coming off bench medium mins (think Lakers will suck off lebron even if his son is bad and give him playing time)

    Year 3 he’s either a bench/role player or waiting off load him if lebron isent here

    Year 4 lebron 100% isent here, we know if he’s credible player or out of league

    I can’t wait to see the narrative switch-up

  10. Makings of a Derrick White with the size and defence. Good to see him play well the last couple.

  11. Ok_Concentrate_75

    Keep it real I see him possibly getting steady burn this year, unless we somehow changed our injury history. We played Lewis and Castleton last year due to a run of injuries. And he actually plays defense, I mean can you imagine a bench backcourt with him and Christie on defense?

  12. If he has a bad game NBA fans will beat on him.  If he has a good game Lakers fans will praise him and NBA fans will beat on him.  Until his NBA career is over.  Sort of like the treatment spotlight Laker players get now.

    Warren Legarie (Summer League Executive Director) said the same thing during the last game:

    >Look, they’re so tough on this poor kid.  This kid, every challenge that’s thrown at him, he’s overcome it.  And no bigger challenge than your life being on the line when you’re playing, and yet, he decided, I’m just going to overcome that, I’m going to get back in shape. And it’s still not something that you forget about in six months, it’s still something about two years where you finally get right again. But he’s out here challenging, and no matter what, he’s smart, he’s got, I believe, the body, he’s gonna get better and better, **in a couple of years everybody will be like, “Oh yeah, we knew he was going to be good.” Everybody’s gonna become a believer.**

  14. I hope for Bronny to rise, but man DALTON was a steal.

    Dude is impressive.

  15. I understand why a lot of people are miffed by Bronny. But I love it. And I’m hoping he makes it.

    He’s going to be a legit nba player…..perhaps maybe not an AS, but he’ll be a solid pro…..and yes, MFers will say “bbbbbbbbut, the lakers colluded with Clutch to pick up Bronny….100% unfair to the rest of the nba teams.”

  17. Foodstamps4life

    He’s already better than JHS. Wild. No /s here, just wild we drafted such a dud.

  18. baronwilberforce

    You guys are delusional. Bronny is a massive nepobaby move. I thought sports was one area where merit was the key determining factor. Seems I’m wrong.

  19. dreamofbeans

    The earth is definitely round

    We went from worshiping Andrew Goudelock and Darius Morris to BI and Dlo and now we’re back a full circle.

    Hope the best for Bronny! Prove me wrong lol

  20. I give it 6 months before people people complain the Lakers got Dalton at 17th

  21. Counterspell_God

    He’s good for the pick. His floor is TJ McConnell imo

  22. daking789

    Excuse my language, I just wanna say Jaylen Brown is a pussy ass bitch for talkin shit about Bronny to impress some pretty girls.
