Athletes like LeBron are unicorns. Any elite pro athlete is a unicorn.

In order to create offspring that can also become elite players, you have to marry and procreate with an athletic woman.

Steph Curry is a good example. Dell Curry was a solid NBA player. Sonya was a college volleyball player. Neither Steph nor Seth are freak athletes but they made the league on their own merit because Dell married an athletic woman whose genes complimented his own.

Look at Swagu's kids. Marcus married a WNBA sista and now his son is a top hoops recruit and his daughter is volleyball player at one of the top programs (U of Texas).

Klay Thompson? Dad was a good player in the league and Mychal married a white woman that happened to be a college volleyball player that also ran track in high school.

Bron married a good, solid woman for building with, but he didn't max out the athletic genes for his boys. Jordan did the same thing. Juanita was a lawyer, not an athlete and his sons ended up being guys that couldn't make it in sports.

TL;DR - In about 25-ish years we gonna hear about Bam Adebayo and A'Ja Wilson's sons wrecking AAU tournaments nationwide.

You are looking at examples of children with athletes. I can also drop 7 people with parents, where neither were athletes , and 7 where one was, and 7 were both were and their kids didn’t reach the pro :dahell:

While you can increase probabilities, you can’t guarantee anything

No doubt...it's all a game of probability.

The only thing somewhat reliable is height. If Bron marries a 6'2" woman, Bronny is probably closer to his dad's size if not taller. His game looks a whole lot different at 6'9" versus 6'1".

Bryce got to 6'6" anyway, so he'd (possibly) be knocking on the door of 7'0"....completely different player. Not necessarily better or worse but different.

MJ looks just like his dad and brothers but they're all 5'11 and under. His bro Larry got the same hops and handles but ended up like 5'9." Larry might even have been more explosive as an athlete....probably should have gone the football route. Genetics are weird.

You’re not a geneticist sir…. Countless pro athletes have been born from regular people for the most part…

Bronny is a slightly above average 2nd round pick with confidence issues. Him and Dalton both have that going on. But Dalton is getting more of a pass.


I respect that though. If he gets on the court he will have earned it.
He didn’t earn the scholarship in the first place. He’s, at best, a low level D1 player and that’s only because of his height.

Skill and talent wise he should’ve went to a D2 or D3. People talk about Jordan’s sons but they were both legitimate D1 basketball players
