Bronny James

I feel real sympathy for Bronny James, because few young athletes carry a heavier surname. Born in Akron and developed at Sierra Canyon before reaching the Lakers, he made the NBA on his own merits, yet every game is judged against his father's impossible legacy. To me his challenge was never talent but the crushing weight of expectation, and the fact that he keeps stepping onto the court anyway tells me his character is solid. I refuse to call him a product of nepotism; he is a young man still writing his own name, and I would rather watch that story unfold patiently than rush to a verdict.
