"I think the next thing is to be an athlete who is physically elite," Redick said. Because when he gets there, combined with his physical condition, explosiveness and dribbling skills, we also believe that he will become a mid-to-high, or even very good NBA shooter, then he really has a chance to become an impact player. ”

In his first 21 games of the season, Bronny averaged just 4.7 minutes per game, averaging 1.6 points per game while shooting 26.3 percent from the field and 22.7 percent from three-point range. However, he excelled in the Development League, playing nine games for the South Bay Lakers, averaging 20.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.8 steals in 33.5 minutes while shooting 43.1 percent from the field and 36.1 percent from three-point range.

Despite this, he has received a lot of criticism from the outside world. "I've always been impressed with him as a person who has to face a bunch of bullshit just because he's James' son. But he was still able to face all this calmly and show a high demeanor, which is enough to show his character and fully reflect his family's upbringing. Redick added, "From the first day I worked with him on the court this summer, I knew he was going to be an NBA player, and I still believe that." ”

Bronny played 29 minutes and scored 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting, along with three rebounds, five assists, one hot pot and two three-pointers.
