NBA Draft prospect Bronny James went through the pre-draft process last week, sparking a lot of discussion about his draft position and what his NBA career will look like.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green gave his thoughts on what James' NBA career will look like on a recent episode of his podcast, saying he believes the young guard has what it takes to play at the NBA level. He said he was there.
“He has more than enough qualities and tools to at least be a good backup point guard.”

Green has a close relationship with LeBron James, who of course is Bronny's father, and all three are represented by Klutch Sports. The basketball world is very interested in how the draft will play out, as there is always a storyline about James possibly playing alongside his father, but neither Bronny nor LeBron are interested in seeing that happen this summer. They don't seem to be very motivated to make it happen.
There will be a lot of attention on Bronny James as he begins his NBA career, but the young guard appears to be entering the league with the right mindset. James wants to impact the game in any way he can, but he's not focused on trying to become a star right away when he enters the league.
James understands that he will likely have an opportunity to play a specific role at the NBA level and seems motivated to be elite in that role. This is the type of mindset that can produce very solid NBA players, and James certainly seems to understand that.
