In the past two days, the NBA draft has undoubtedly attracted the attention of a large number of fans, on the one hand, there is a Chinese national team player Cui Yongxi to impact the NBA and participate in the draft. On the other hand, it was James' son Bronny who participated in the draft.
In the end, Choi Yong-hee regrettably lost the selection, but he will represent the Trail Blazers in the NBA Summer League next, which can be regarded as a reward for his efforts.
On the other hand, it was the Lakers who selected Bronny with the 55th pick. This choice also allowed James, the first person in the NBA, to realize his desire to compete with his son.
Next season, on the Lakers' court, we will see James and Bronny in the same arena, and I have to say, James is really great. It has been 21 years since I entered the NBA in 2003. To make a simple comparison, that year was the golden generation, and Wade, Anthony, and Bosh, who participated in the draft together at that time, were all superstars, but they had already left the NBA stage.
Of course, our legendary superstar Yao Ming, the champion of 2002, retired more than a decade ago. And Yi Jianlian, the No. 6 NBA show in 2006, has also retired.
Speaking of Bronny, although he was the last pick in the draft, he still has a lot of potential. Now only 19 years old, he played for the University of Southern California in college, making 25 appearances and averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 19.3 minutes per game. Although the score is not high, the data is still relatively comprehensive.
For the Lakers, James is undoubtedly their biggest guarantee for the NBA championship. Although he is 40 years old, he still has a certain amount of dominance. Bronny's arrival won't give them much of a boost, but if they bring in another 1-2 top stars, their championship is still worth looking forward to.
