Anuj’s vivid articulation of the beauty of this sport is brought to the fore with his commentary on the ever-changing dynamic of wrestling storytelling and the ever-growing separation between fiction and reality. Don’t be surprised if he’s rambling about how black and gold NXT was as good as wrestling gets or if he makes a compelling case for why Samoa Joe is the most complete modern wrestler.

Bronny James [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/bronny-james/], the eldest son of NBA icon LeBron James, demonstrated his abilities during the McDonald’s All-American Game. Despite his West team’s tight 107-106 loss to the East, Bronny left an indelible mark with his outstanding play. The 18-year-old guard demonstrated his scoring skills and playmaking abilities while playing at the Toyota Center in Houston, scoring 15 points in only 19 minutes. His three-point shooting was particularly impressive, as he shot 5-for-8 from beyond the arc, falling only one less of Gerald Green’s McDonald’s All-American game record. So, looking at that performance an ESPN commentator who has never backed from criticizing LeBron James [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lebron-james/] praised Bronny and said that he is ready for the NBA. SKIP BAYLESS THINKS BRONNY IS READY FOR THE NBA Skip Bayless has been one of the biggest critics of the Akron Hammer. However, that has not been the case for his son as he said, “The Bronny I saw play in the McDonald’s All-American game was good enough to contribute to an NBA team. He has a good enough feel for the game, he has a good enough NBA stature doesn’t have his father’s height but is 6-foot-3 and is built.” Bayless further said, “He just knows how to play and is fearless because he grew up in a household with one of the greatest players ever. So he will step onto an NBA floor and he will not fold or shrink, he will rise to the occasion.” So, unlike his father, Bronny James has been getting a different treatment from Skip Bayless even before his NBA career began and as Bronny’s skill improves and he gains attention from basketball fans all around the world, his future seems promising. Prevented the Warriors From Winning a Championship, Per NBA Pundit [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-active-basketball-news-lebron-james-and-stephen-curry-lack-of-chemistry-would-have-prevented-the-golden-state-warriors-from-winning-a-championship-per-nba-pundit-mase-camron/] Currently, he is playing for the USC Trojans and despite coming off the bench; he has consistently averaged 5.8 points per game. While it may appear small in comparison to some of the other top talents, with LeBron James as his coach and father, Bronny has all he needs to make a name for himself in the sport in order to follow in his father’s footsteps to become a basketball superstar. So, what do you think, will Bronny James be as successful as his father in the sport of basketball? Let us know in the comments below. Watch this Story: LeBron James’ Warriors Trade: Agent Rich Paul Didn’t Sabotage the Deal [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nba-active-basketball-news-lebron-james-golden-state-warriors-trade-agent-rich-paul-didnt-sabotage-the-deal/] 

Bronny James gets a different treatment from the ESPN commentator as he praises him ahead of the NBA draft

"I am always focused on getting better. I never want to settle for mediocrity",
reflects Luka Doncic’s unwavering dedication to personal growth and excellence.
And just like him, I am constantly working on myself, improving my game! The
first time I fell in love with basketball though was when I saw Kobe Bryant
play. He inspired me to take up basketball, but because of my ankle injury, I
could not pursue my passion. But that did not stop me, the fighter spirit of not
settling for a life of mediocrity brought me here - an NBA writer for
EssentiallySports. So, even though I am not on the court, I imagine myself on
the hardwood, surrounded by all the noise, footsteps, and gameplay, to write
stories you’d like to hear. It’s not just Luka who inspires me, I also find true
inspiration in Curry and Antetokounmpo. On the journalistic front, I am building
my expertise in basketball's lifestyle segment, including understanding sporting
personalities, and their brand endorsements, trades, and their personal lives.
Outside of living and breathing basketball. I am a student who loves to listen,
write, compose, and engineer music. I am a multi-genre artist, but I am mostly
into making music in the hip-hop/rap genre.

<h2>Bronny James Net Worth 2023</h2>
Bronny James sits at an estimated $6.1 million valuation according to ON3 NIL. As of 2023, Bronny boasts a net worth of $10.5 million. He has amassed this fortune through basketball, sponsorships and endorsements.

Currently a freshman at the University of Southern California (USC), Bronny is expected to be a first-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. Interestingly, though widely popular for his basketball skills and incredible defensive abilities as a tenacious guard, Bronny is an avid gamer.
<h2>Bronny James' early life?</h2>

On May 29, 2019, Bronny James embarked on a new chapter by enrolling at Sierra Canyon School, a prestigious K?12 institution in Chatsworth, Los Angeles. This marked the beginning of his freshman year in high school. There, he was joined by Zaire Wade, the son of father and NBA superstar LeBron James' longtime friend, Dwyane Wade.

After spending a significant four years at Sierra Canyon High School. Bronny James made an important decision for his college basketball career. Among his finalists, which included Ohio State and Oregon, he ultimately chose to commit to the University of Southern California (USC). This choice meant that James would remain close to home, in the same city as his father. At USC, he is pursuing a Business Administration major.
<h2>Bronny James' family and personal life</h2>
Bronny James is the eldest son of 4x NBA Champion <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lebron-james/">LeBron James</a> and Savannah James.

Bronny suffered a cardiac arrest during a practice session on July 24 this year. The 18-year-old incoming freshman was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles and was released three days later.

In 2018, Bronny attended Old Trail School in Bath Township, Summit County, Ohio, and concluded his high school years with a championship win in the Independent School League. In April 2019, He debuted with Strive for Greatness in the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League (EYBL).?

On May 29, 2019, Bronny James started a new chapter by enrolling at Sierra Canyon School, a prestigious K?12 institution located in Chatsworth, Los Angeles. This marks the beginning of his freshman year in high school. In May 2023, Bronny made the decision to commit to the University of Southern California (USC).
<h2>Bronny James' career stats</h2>
Over four years at Sierra Canyon, Bronny James showcased his skills as a tenacious guard with a strong defensive presence. During his freshman year, he logged minutes in all 34 games, contributing 4.1 points per game. Unfortunately, a knee injury sidelined him for a significant part of his sophomore season. However, his junior year saw a resurgent Bronny leading Sierra Canyon to the regional finals, averaging 8.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.9 steals per game.

In his senior year, he further elevated his game, recording impressive statistics of 14.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.8 steals per game. These stellar performances earned him a spot in the prestigious McDonald?s All-American Game, a notable achievement despite Sierra Canyon's underwhelming 23?10 record.

Bronny is now poised to make his mark at the collegiate level with USC. The 18-year-old star is also expected to declare for the NBA in the 2024 draft class.
<h2>Bronny James' partnerships and endorsements</h2>
On October 10, 2022, Bronny signed a NIL endorsement deal with Nike, making him one of the five amateur basketball players to do so. The Nike sponsorship for Bronny James doesn't come as a surprise, considering his father, LeBron James, has been a Nike athlete all his professional career. With LeBron signing a lifetime $1 billion contract with Nike in 2015, it's only fitting for Bronny to extend his basketball journey in his father's footsteps. Thanks to the new NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) regulations, Bronny secured endorsement deals before deciding which college to attend.

One month after the Bronny James Nike deal, he signed a NIL deal with popular headphone brand Beats by Dre. Moreover, Beats made the announcement on social media with a video advertisement campaign called, 'The Chosen One vs. The Chosen Son' - a face-off between LeBron James and his son Bronny James.?

His other featured commercials include Mountain Dew and a video commercial for the 2023-released Fast and Furious franchise film, Fast X.
