Kiyan Anthony on Bronny James being drafted “It just shows that anybody could do it. “



“It just shows that anybody could do it. I’m coming up next, and I could do it. Definitely happy for him and definitely congratulations to him.”

    I don’t think he meant it that way, but this sounds like a backhanded compliment.

  2. Weary-Amoeba1808

    Yeah, anyone can do it. Even someone who has been hogtied by being the child of one of the greatest to ever play the game.

    Idk, I’ve been waiting to get drafted for a couple years now, and nada.

  4. klobucharzard

    if bronny was 5″6 and had my dad he woulda had the same shot

    It’s a bit of a silly comment from a kid. Not a big deal but you appreciate these young men who are trying to make a name for themselves outside of their parent’s shadows.

    This has to be sarcasm? Would he be in the NBA if he wasnt LBJ’s son…nope

  7. Storm-Strider-

    Anyone can do it… if their dad is LeBron James…. But seriously, congrats to Bronny. It’s gotta be tough living up to that legacy

  8. SwayingMapleLeaf

    Why the man got a Toronto accent on him💀

  9. No_Camel7011

    Anyone in bronnys situation could do this. Even Bronny.

    “Anyone can do it”

    Yes, I too can be drafted in the NBA despite sucking at the sport if my dad is the face of the league and the defacto GM of a team.

    Yeah buddy.

  11. PixelVerge

    Damn, he said if that trash ah, bum ah, sorry ah, that mutha Nigeria…

    Paraphrasing for what he said

  12. anybody who’s dad is the greatest basketball player in the world atleast.

  13. TheMoorNextDoor

    Anybody with Lebron James as a father can be drafted*

  14. TheImmortal06

    damn the disrespect bronny is getting in this thread is insane mfers are acting like he’s marcus jordan

  15. 9jajajaj9

    He means anyone with a HOF dad, like himself and Bronny

  16. Known_Pension_5779

    Anyone can do it – Bryce about to as well

  17. Blowback_

    I don’t know how smart this dude is, but he definitely chose the wrong words.

  18. Objective_Celery_509

    This is the most non-sensical thing I’ve ever heard, yet I know exactly what he means.

  19. Abject_Data_2739

    I mean he ain’t wrong. Buddy should not have been drafted, just signed…Kiyan with the click bait beef I like it. Lmao

  20. I remember seeing him on the sidelines when he was a toddler. Damn they grow up so fast

  21. r/nba when a high schooler doesn’t give a media answer related to someone they grew up with 😡

  22. Anyone could do it with that leverage and nepotism for sure lol

  23. SnooAbbreviations183

    Mfers always trying to start something . Leave the young brothers alone

  24. AdvancedBasket_ND

    Big brains in here already forgot that the kid with the genetic freak billionaire for a father also suffered a cardiac arrest due an undiagnosed heart defect exactly one year ago. 100% what Kiyan is referring to

  25. Flaky_Scar_8388

    No one would have drafted him if isn’t wasnt for the Lakers and his dad. He was going undrafted. He didn’t show enough in his one season at USC to warrant anyone drafting him.

    great admirer of this sport, greetings from Argentina. 🙌

  27. It goes to show you that daddy can get you a job. It’s no different than any other industry, it’s all about who you know.

  28. Most-Artichoke6184

    Doesn’t it show the exact opposite.

  29. TOPROPE3LBOWDROP

    I think what he meant was.. every human willing to work that hard has a chance to make it somewhere like the nba. Or a stage to do what you love somewhere.
    He obviously doesn’t have his pops physique. Still an outstanding explosive athlete that he had to earn through crazy work.
