Ahead of the NBA draft on June 26, the only question that the fans want an answer to is whether LeBron‘s son Bronny James will make it to the league. There was some criticism of the 19-year-old’s readiness when he announced for the draft. Then he impressed a few with his performance at the NBA Draft Combine. However, his future in the NBA remains a question mark. On the contrary, former Phoenix Suns star Jamal Crawford believes Bronny is one of a kind and is ready to go pro for a few reasons.
In his interview for the Dan Patrick Show, Crawford said, “I watched him at the Combine, and even before that…I love how he plays, I love how he was raised.

The host asked Crawford, “If I take away the name…and you went to the Combine, are you noticing Bronny James?”. Crawford gave a confident yes and shared, “6’1, 40 inches vertical!? That’s gonna jump off the page first. And then you shoot 25 threes and make 19 of them. I’m watching that as well, and he is making the right play.” That’s a nod of approval for LeBron James’s son!
