Prior To His Nike NIL Deal, Bronny James Hilariously Posterized A Random Child In Their Own Driveway Mini-Hoop

Bronny James is currently on pace to be one of the most highly recruited seniors in the entire nation. He’s gotten offers from the likes of UCLA, Oregon, Duke, and has even teased going to his home state’s, Ohio State University, and becoming a Buckeye. Though, it’s clear that he won’t be making a decision until this spring. 

What Bronny has accomplished as a mere 18-year-old is beyond remarkable. The fact that he’s pursuing a career in the same field as his father, LeBron Jams, shows just how confident he is in his abilities. Constant comparisons between him and LeBron will continue to float around and he seems to be completely alright with that. 

The added pressure of having to make it to the NBA to play with his father on the same team doesn’t seem to faze him either. The main reason for the this most probably is the fact he simply loves basketball.

Bronny James pulled up to a random driveway to shot hoops with kids 

Bronny James loves basketball so much that he even once came through to a random driveway and played some basketball with strangers. The kids seemed to be elated with the fact that he was hooping with them but one child in particular went viral for what the Sierra Canyon student did to him. 

After a couple of lackluster moves, Bronny dug into his bag and hilariously put one of the kids on a monster poster. This prompted quite the reaction from people who witnessed this happen live and this clip would go on to make several rounds across all social media platforms.

This was back towards the end of 2020. Fast-forward to present day and Bronny most certainly would get mobbed the second he exited his car. 

Bronny James has signed a number of NIL deals 

Like his father, Bronny James recently signed an NIL deal with Nike at the age of 18. He’s also signed with the gaming company ‘FaZe’ and goes by the name of ‘FaZe Bronny’. 

Along with LeBron James, he is currently signed with ‘Beats by Dre’ as well to help endorse their products. All of these deals combined have resulted in him reportedly accumulating a $10 million net worth.
