The controversy surrounding Bronny James being drafted into the NBA and playing on his dad's team the Lakers will probably go on for a while.
Last night, Jaylen Brown got caught speaking negatively about Bronny's hoop skills.
Brown was watching an NBA Summer League game with his girlfriend Kysre Gondrezick and WNBA star Angel Reese when he took a shot at Bronny.
"I don’t think Bronny is a pro," said Brown about LeBron James' son.
"I think he’ll be on the g-league team, for sure," Kryse responded.
"Because of his name, he’s gonna be with the Lakers," Brown predicted
The clip quickly made the internet rounds, so the 6'6" wing tried to do some damage control.

"It’s a flex to have your son alongside you in the NBA; it reflects greatness and longevity!" he wrote on social media. Bronny has all the tools around him to be successful, and I look forward to watching his growth.
Notice that Jaylen didn't take back his words about Bronny, who struggled in college and in Summer League, not being NBA-ready. Instead, he talked about watching him grow into a pro.
Would you say that Bronny is ready for the league?
