Caleb Foster and Mercy Miller both dominated Bronny in HS. Yet neither are getting serious run real.

On Strive For Greatness Bronny was backing up Mikey Wiliams, Dior Johnson and Skyy Clark.

Guard play can be a tough transition if you're not an elite athlete.

Bronny needed to go to a school that develops guards but i don’t think He had any high level offers

And in hs he needed to play where he was a focal point rather than some loaded prep team.

Ah ok that's fair. Tbh I never watched the G league so I figured it was on par with the avg overseas league (I'm not counting National teams as that is a different level and includes NBA)
Yea but they've been playing a lot longer in smaller leagues and it's a lot rougher too


NCAA ball is definitely a level hire then G League.
You could be right. With the style of play and all. I was thinking the level of players. Plus, having 114 teams weakens the comp

If we being real G league doesn't event have a real identity. IMO they should be playing each other AND intl Play to truely be a developmental thing, but NBA prob doesn't see point of investing

I'd say 3 of the concerns he had months ago are still there.

His conditioning isnt good enough for someone so young. Idk if thats from the heart stuff or just not use to playing hard for real in HS.
While his handle has improved exponentially, in the G league it means nothing if he doesnt use it on the NBA level.
Three point shooting still bad.

I get its in Denver, but at 20 he shouldnt be looking so gassed at 16 mins. At his height he's gotta have a motor. Sure Goodwin is shooting better, but he needs to see that its his motor why he's out there and he's gotta have that in order to play meaningful games one day.

I feel ya, but thats something I notice in the G league as well.
Like its good he's scoring 20 there, but he still settles for a lot of 3s and honestly isnt playing defense as hard (partially cause he's scoring 20. So when he gets the NBA games he still looks lost a bit times defensively cause he's not really working to be the point of attack defender they drafted him for.

And thats cool, but when he finally gets his shot he didnt use any of the development from running point to show that off. But maybe that today was the illness.
