A star of the courts since his early childhood, Bronny James struggles to gain consensus regarding his talent and his potential. A former All-Star claims to be well placed to give an opinion on him, since he would have been approached by LeBron himself.
It’s not easy to develop as a basketball player when the spotlights and cameras are with you forever. Bronny James still had to find a way to achieve it.

Gilbert Arenas’ Incredible Story About Bronny James
There is no longer a shadow of a doubt: LeBron James dreams of playing in the league alongside Bronny. However, it seems that he expressed doubts about his ability to join him there. In any case, this is what Gilbert Arenas said on Podcast P :
LeBron wrote to me privately about Bronny. He told me he was worried because he was about to enter 9th grade. He was like, “Yo, my son is going to practice with Dribble2Much, can you watch him?” » I replied, “Go ahead. »
Concerned by the level of his eldest son, the King would have approached Arenas to play the role of scout. A role that the former full-back would have taken on with joy before drawing the following conclusions:
I went over there and gave him feedback, like, “Yo, you guys are about as fast, you have the same passing skills and pretty much the same basketball IQ.” At his age, he might jump a little higher and with more force. And he shoots and dribbles really better than you. »
A former ultra-cash on Bronny: “It’s a Bugatti, but he plays like he…
Very complimentary of Bronny at first glance, Arenas was subsequently requisitioned by LeBron to train him. Which he once again did without flinching… before becoming slightly disillusioned:
I arranged to meet him at UCLA to put him to the test. I took another kid with me, Skyy Clark, who plays at Louisville now. My son was there too, he was younger than the other two. But Bronny was getting crushed.
Hibachi could therefore be surprised at this unfavorable balance of power for James, but would have found the words to wake him up:
I was like, “Hey man, you gotta rebel!” » He glared at me and after that it wasn’t the same. In the 1-vs-1 that followed, he released a Euro-Step by simply holding the ball with his palm, Kawhi style! I was like, “Oh wow. » After that, he rolled over the others. In the end, I called Bron and said, “Okay, you don’t have to worry. »
Beyond this session where Bronny was able to react, the latter would have particularly marked the spirit of Arenas thanks to one of his main qualities:
He is really very intelligent. Like, when we were working pick-and-rolls, I put him in different situations and he read them perfectly every time. He’s perhaps the smartest of them all.
Contacted by LeBron James to analyze and help Bronny progress, Gilbert Arenas would have gone through all the states observing him. His final assessment regarding the USC rear is nevertheless very positive, which must obviously delight the King.
