During quarantine, Bronny James Jr. has been spending his time streaming on Twitch and he's been playing a lot of NBA 2K. When you're the son of LeBron James, a lot of people are going to want to watch you, and just as many people are going to want to play and stream with you. If you are lucky enough to stream with Bronny, well, there is a good chance you will get to have some insight into the life of LeBron, or better yet, you may just get to talk to him yourself.

That's exactly what happened to streamer Adin Ross over the weekend. Ross was playing NBA 2K with Bronny when all of a sudden, LeBron crashed the stream and said "what's good bruh." When Ross asked if it was LeBron talking, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar couldn't help but laugh.

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.

Diddy was having himself a blast on Instagram Live yesterday as he put on a Dance-A-Thon Livestream as a way to raise money for healthcare workers. Of course, we are going through a nasty pandemic and healthcare workers could use all of the materials they can get. They have been in short supplies these days and Diddy wanted to make sure that they are good heading into the peak of the virus' spread.

The music mogul had a plethora of special guests, including LeBron James whose beard was looking fuller than ever. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar was sipping on wine and having himself a blast while soaking in some gems from Puff. At one point, LeBron motioned for his two sons to come over although they appeared too shy to get in the frame. After some convincing, Bronny joined the stream although he was looking as shy as ever.

There is nothing inherently harmful about placing expectations upon someone. These days, we expect LeBron James to be one of the NBA’s scoring leaders every season because he has proven to us time and time again that he can do it. Without his incredible play on the court, we wouldn’t have those expectations. When a high draft pick is touted as the next big thing, as James was back in 2003, we say this because of what they’ve shown us so far. Simply put: high expectations are the product of your ability at your craft. While this is positive, there is no denying that high and unrealistic expectations can damage a player and open them up to intense scrutiny. Let’s take a look at players such as Andrew Wiggins, Anthony Bennett, Markelle Fultz, and even Greg Oden. All of those players went first overall in their respective drafts and all of them have been lambasted by the media. Why? Well, because they never lived up to the expectations of a number one pick.

If someone expects something of you and you don’t deliver, you’re labeled as a disappointment. This is something that translates to work, school, and even interpersonal relationships. When millions of dollars are at stake and tens of millions of eyes watching your every move on the court, the stakes are that much higher. It’s easy to see how a young player can fall victim to the pitfalls of lofty expectations. These players tend to put more pressure on themselves and when they see the media giving them attention, it magnifies that pressure to an extreme level. Luckily for someone like LeBron, he was able to drown out the noise and forge his own path all while redefining expectations in the process.

Now, it’s LeBron’s son Bronny James Jr. who has to go through the very same thing. Bronny’s birth name, the same as LeBron’s, is something James has admitted he regrets. While speaking on The Shop, LeBron admitted that he only recently realized the burden that comes with that name. Essentially if Bronny isn’t as good as LeBron– he’s a failure. Of course, LeBron has been adamant about Bronny forging his own path and being his best self regardless of who his father is. While this is all well and good, it hasn’t stopped pundits and scouts from speculating about Bronny’s future. As of right now, Bronny is a freshman playing for Sierra Canyon High School in California and has been wracking up quite a few highlights. Due to his status as a freshman, he hasn’t been dominating the scoresheet or raking in the minutes. Instead he’s been developing so he can make more of an impact in his sophomore season.

Realistically, Bronny’s development as a high school basketball player shouldn’t be a story. However, it’s been turned into one. ESPN has started broadcasting Sierra Canyon games and his highlights are everywhere on social media. When Bronny scores a limited amount of points, weird adults on the internet are quick to claim Bronny is some sort of bust who will never be as good as his dad. People have become so worked up over Bronny that it’s almost as if the general public has forgotten that he’s still a teenager with a lot to learn. Some pundits have begun debating whether or not Bronny has college potential and if he has a real path to the NBA. At 15, the weight of the world is already being put on his shoulders. The same thing happened to his dad. Except there is one difference. LeBron exceeded expectations which means people are going to assume the same of Bronny, regardless of how fair it is.

Even we at HNHH might be a little bit guilty of the Bronny hype. We’ve certainly written our fair share of articles highlighting some of his best plays. What we’ve always made sure to do, however, is not try and hype him up as the second coming of his father. To do so would be robbing a young kid of his joy for the game. While this may be true, it’s also important to note that no one is immune from criticism. With that being said, there is a difference between an obsession over a 15-year-old’s future and an honest conversation about their mistakes and shortcomings on the court. Unfortunately, the dialogue surrounding Bronny has gone from 0 to 100 and it doesn’t seem like it’s going to slow down anytime soon.

Over the next couple of years, we’re going to see the Bronny hype skyrocket to unforeseen levels, especially if he continues to excel as a basketball player. If and when Bronny goes to college, the expectations thrust upon him will be so out of this world that they’re going to exceed those placed on LeBron. Even the assumption that he’ll go to college for basketball is an expectation in and of itself. Perhaps Bronny actually likes these expectations. After all, some people thrive in this environment. No one knows what Bronny’s thinking right now but none of it can be easy. 

Bronny is simply in an impossible situation. His father’s stature as one of the best to ever play makes him susceptible to these expectations while the frantic media coverage has made him an overnight star. If Bronny were to not live up to expectations, while the fallout would be massive, it wouldn’t be his fault. Moving forward, Bronny will become the perfect example of what high expectations can do to a young athlete. While we wish him the best, we hope everyone can sit back and realize that he’s only a kid.

LeBron James will most likely go down as one of the greatest basketball players of all-time. Over the next few years, we will get to see whether or not James wins a few more titles and further cements his legacy as one of the best players to ever step onto the basketball court. Even if you don’t like LeBron, you can’t deny just how good he is and how much he means to the game of basketball.

LeBron’s two sons, Bronny and Bryce, are dope basketball players in their own right and are currently playing for school teams. Bryce is in middle school while Bronny is a freshman in high school. Overall, they have a ton of potential and recently, the two were featured in a video with LeBron that shows off their lobbing ability. In fact, LeBron is calling them the Big 3 and even refers to them as “Lob Gang.”

It remains to be seen what Bronny and Bryce are able to do with their young careers. There is no denying they have a great role model behind them who can coach them every step of the way. LeBron has made it apparent that there is no pressure on his sons to succeed in basketball and that he just wants them to carve out their own unique legacies.

Hopefully, we get to see Bronny and Bryce excel for years to come.

Bronny James Jr. is the 15-year-old son of NBA superstar LeBron James and over the last few months, he has been earning a ton of coverage thanks to his play with Sierra Canyon High School in California. Prior to Sierra Canyon, Bronny was known for his highlights while playing for various AAU teams. He has always shown a ton of potential and can already dunk like no one else. As a Freshman on Sierra Canyon, Bronny hasn't been lighting up the scoresheet although he has been a mainstay on highlight reels thanks to his alley-oops and ability to make big plays when it matters. 

Yesterday, ESPN posted Bronny's freshman mixtape on their IGTV and all we can say is: "wow." Throughout the video, Bronny can be seen making a plethora of big plays that will certainly get basketball fans excited for the future.

Of course, it remains to be seen what Bronny will be able to accomplish in the future. Some believe he could play in the NCAA one day while others are holding out before making any premature judgments on a 15-year-old. Regardless, Bronny appears to be an immensely talented player who has a ton of potential moving forward.

Hopefully, we will be seeing Bronny's highlights for years to come.

LeBron James in his 17th season in the NBA and at 35 years old, appears to still have plenty of gas left in the tank. It remains to be seen how much longer he's going to play although fans are optimistic that he will be in the league until at least 40. LeBron's oldest son, Bronny, is 15 years old and is currently impressing scouts with his play for Sierra Canyon high school. There is a chance Bronny could end up playing in the NBA one day and some members of the media are trying to drum up some hype for when that day may come.

After barely beating the New York Knicks last night, LeBron was asked by New York media if he would consider playing for the Knicks should they draft Bronny in a few years from now. LeBron seemed pretty put off by the question and brushed it off saying "my son is in the 9th grade, man."

Bronny James Jr is only a freshman in high school yet he is still the most popular high school basketball player on the planet. The reason for this is quite simple: his dad is LeBron James. Bronny is currently playing for Sierra Canyon and has been making waves as a future top tier talent. While he isn't racking up stats, or playing at the level of some of his teammates, Bronny has been able to showcase some flashed of brilliance that bode well for him in the future.

This past weekend, Bronny and company took on Minnehaha Academy at the Target Center in Minnesota. Fans came out in droves to watch Sierra Canyon play as 17,000 people packed the Timberwolves arena. What makes this so incredible is that, according to Bleacher Report, the T-Wolves average under 15,000 fans per game. Despite the crowd, Sierra Canyon lost by 20 as Bronny scored five points in 18 minutes of action.
