@pointmadebball: "Bronny James is playing with a ton more confidence lately, and it’s showing both in the box scores and on tape

In December, he’s averaging 20.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 2.0 assists

I especially like the shotmaking + playmaking flashes we’ve been seeing"

@OGeezusMaximus: "I would like to see Bronny focus on being a traditional pg, a floor general type. That position is lacking in this league. Maybe work with CP3 in the summer."
