Bronny James Jr. is one of the most interesting up and coming talents in high school basketball and while his skills are certainly plentiful, his name has a little something to do with it. Of course, Bronny is the oldest son of LeBron James and there are many out there who think Bronny could someday go to a Division 1 NCAA school and maybe even make it into the NBA.

These days, Bronny can be found playing NBA 2K20 for his audience on Twitch. Yes, that’s right, Bronny is a Livestreamer in his spare time and he has grown to be quite good at it. Recently, Bronny was on stream, and in between all of the trolling, he was asked to name his five favorite NBA players. As you can see, he has some pretty good taste.

Giannis Antetokounmpo, James Harden, Damian Lillard, Anthony Davis, and Kevin Durant all ended up on his list although they weren’t placed in any particular order. Bronny ended up leaving his dad off of the list since that’s what the chat ultimately wanted him to do.

If you were to poll most young fans, this is the list they would probably give you. Realistically, Bronny’s list didn’t contain any surprises but it was solid nonetheless.

Let us know in the comments below who your top five is, using only contemporary players.

Ever since Anthony Davis got to the Los Angeles Lakers, they have been a much better team. Of course, the year before, the Lakers missed out on the playoffs due to numerous injuries and some lackluster play from a brigade of young stars who just weren't meant for the bright lights of L.A. With that being said, this new Lakers team is incredibly fun to watch and LeBron James and AD are the new NBA power duo. 

While Davis is arguably the best player on the team this season, Stephen A. Smith had a hot take on where the Lakers would be if Davis was steering the ship and LeBron wasn't there. As he explains, the Lakers would simply be like the Pelicans, except with different jerseys.

It's been a rough time for sports fans around the world as we have very little to watch these days. Luckily, sports like MMA and soccer are making a slow return to action although basketball still seems fairly far away from coming back. In the interim, video game companies have been trying to fill the gaps, including Take-Two Interactive who have been putting together an NBA 2K "Simulation Tournament." Essentially, they simulated the rest of the season and then simulated the playoffs.

Throughout the last few weeks, the Los Angeles Lakers and Milwaukee Bucks were able to claw their way into the NBA Finals. In the most recent simulation, the Lakers won the championship in seven games and Anthony Davis was able to secure Finals MVP. In fact, the Lakers were even down 3-1 in the series but were able to come roaring back.

Lil Pump is over the shaved eyebrows look, and has opted to draw a unibrow on his face to look like more NBA star Anthony Davis. Pump has really been on one lately, possibly going a little stir crazy as a result of being stuck in quarantine. The 19-year-old recently shocked the world when he posted a photo on Instagram revealing that he’d completely shaved his eyebrows off. “I’m an alien,” he wrote on the post, showing off his new bold (not to mention, bald) look.

He later jokingly explained that the reason he’d decided to take a razor to his eyebrows had something to do with the wildly popular Netflix docu-series, Tiger King. In a video on his Instagram story, Pump put on a Floridian accent similar to the stars of the big cat conservatory show, and ranted about how “the reason I shaved my eyebrows is ’cause that b*tch Carole Baskin, god damn it, she killed her husband and fed him to the god damn tigers!” It’s a widely-believed theory that one of the stars of the series, Carole Baskin, was responsible for murdering her ex-husband, Don Lewis.

However, now Pump has decided to shift gears a bit and go for a slightly different eyebrow look. It appears that the rapper has drawn a super thick unibrow on his face, joking that he looks like “Anthony Davis now.” The Lakers star is known for rocking a unibrow, although his is certainly not as thick as Pump’s fake one.

Pump showed off his new look further in a Triller video with his buddy, Smokepurpp. The two of them engaged in some shenanigans in the brief clip, which includes a snippet of their previously teased song called “Off My Chest.” Purpp asked his followers to comment “FLORIDA JIT” if they’re ready for his upcoming album, so it looks like we might be hearing this unreleased collab along with Purpp’s next body of work fairly soon.

What do you think of Pump’s new look?

NBA players are currently in the midst of the most bizarre crisis they have ever been a part of. The league has completely shut down and it has nothing to do with a lockout or CBA disagreement. Instead, it has to do with the fact that the Coronavirus is ravaging its way throughout North America and the league needed to take action.

Prior to the break, the Los Angeles Lakers were first in the Western Conference and Anthony Davis was having himself a wonderful year. Now, the Lakers star is speaking out about COVID-19 and what his teammates are doing now that they can’t play or practice together. As you’re about to read, everyone is very bored.

“We’re sending each other highlight tapes because we miss the game,” Davis said according to Tania Ganguli of the Los Angeles Times.“Guys are finding a way to work out safely because you know the season isn’t over. We want to make sure we pick up where we left off. We were in a great place.”

The Lakers are considered championship contenders and if the league ends up canceling the season, many will feel as though the Lakers were robbed. With this in mind, it will be interesting to see how all of the different scenarios end up playing out.

Anthony Davis is one of the best players on the Los Angeles Lakers and before the league suspended its operations due to the Coronavirus, he was having one of his best seasons. Now, Davis is sitting on his couch at home, waiting for the call that the league will resume. Unfortunately, this won’t happen for quite some time. Recently, Davis was asked about the Coronavirus and his thoughts on the pandemic.

In an interview with Tania Ganguli of the Los Angeles Times, Davis noted that he is pretty scared about everything that is going and that for now, he is just trying to keep himself informed. There are over 100k cases in the United States right now and people are being infected at an alarming rate.

Per Davis:

“I just saw yesterday the United States became number one in cases. It’s kind of just getting out of hand. I’m trying to stay as safe as possible, doing what our team doctors told us and just trying to have a good spirit about everything and tell the people I can reach out to, to stay safe. Obviously it’s a tragedy and devastating. There’s a sadness of what’s going on with our players around the league, our players families and everyone around the world. When a lot of people are going through it and able to share their stories and share the severity of the situation it helps everyone out. It opens people’s eyes … a lot of people aren’t too informed about it.”

Moving forward, Davis and his teammates will be looking to keep themselves and their families safe. If they practice social distancing, along with everyone else, this pandemic could end sooner rather than later.

LeBron James and Anthony Davis may have a significant age difference but their friendship knows no bounds. The two have been good friends ever since AD came into the league and over the last year or so, their relationship has expanded thanks to the fact that they are teammates. They always have each other's back and they also have some of the best chemistry in the league. Because of this, the Lakers are first place in the Western Conference with a record of 49-13.

Today, Davis is celebrating his 27th birthday. The superstar has accomplished quite a bit in just a short time in the league and is seen as, at least, a top 10 player. Since today was a special occasion, LeBron had to take full advantage. As you can see in the clip below, LeBron belts out a spirited rendition of "Happy Birthday" with lyrics specific to AD.

Kevin Durant hasn't been able to play for the Brooklyn Nets this season but his presence has certainly been felt. Durant can be seen sitting courtside at pretty well every game as he gives his teammates pointers on how to be their best. Last night, Durant came in especially handy as his Nets took on the Los Angeles Lakers in LA.

It was a back and forth affair that saw both teams trading the lead at times, especially in the final minutes. At one point in the game, the Nets were up 104-102 although the Lakers had the final possession. Needing a three-pointer to win the game, the ball was passed to Anthony Davis who was left wide open.

Durant didn't seem to appreciate his teammates' lack of defense and eventually let out a mighty yell before turning his head, thinking the ball would go in. Eventually, Davis' shot missed and the Nets won the game.

Anthony Davis and LeBron James have turned the Los Angeles Lakers into title contenders this season and if the regular season were to end right now, they would finish first in the Western Conference. They have been nothing short of dominant and after the weekend they just had, some people think they can actually win the NBA title. LeBron was a monster as he dismantled the league-leading Milwaukee Bucks while also defeating the Kawhi Leonard-led Los Angeles Clippers.

After yesterday's game, there was a serious debate on social media about whether or not LeBron deserves to be the NBA MVP. AD was very adamant while speaking about this topic and offered a full array of thoughts after the game. As you can see, Davis isn't feeling all of the LeBron detractors out there. 

Ja Morant continued his Rookie of the Year caliber season Saturday night, outplaying LeBron James and beating the Lakers 105-88. After the game, both players spoke about each other with high praise, according to ESPN.

"The kid is super special," said James, "Like I said when we just played him in L.A., Memphis got a great one. They got a great one. So, the sky's the limit for the kid."

"That's big bro -- the King," Morant said. "I mean, I feel like everybody knows who he is. Just somebody that I look up to, a great [role] model. He's just one of a kind. I don't think there can be another LeBron."

Morant finished with 27 points, 14 assists and 6 rebounds in the dominating victory. He easily outplayed James who scored 19 points, 10 assists and 8 rebounds. 

In the second half, Morant attempted a dunk on Lakers' big man Anthony Davis but was called for a charge; however, the sheer athleticism of the play was enough for it to make highlight reels.
