LeBron James criticized NBA draft projections for demoting his son, Bronny, from 2024 to the 2025 draft class, expressing hopes of playing alongside his eldest son; the adjustment could delay their potential NBA collaboration.

LeBron voiced concerns over the undue pressure mock drafts exert on young athletes via X (previously Twitter), prompting a response from ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith, who accused LeBron of creating unnecessary expectations for Bronny.

"You're gonna tweet about folks needing to leave your son alone? … You did that. LeBron is entirely and completely culpable for any kind of critique coming in Bronny's direction."

Smith argued that LeBron’s influence and openness to joining any team that drafts Bronny places undue spotlight on the USC freshman, comparing the James family’s handling of public attention to that of the Obamas.

Bron told us to keep that same energy but Bron don't ever EVER keep that same energy

The King of No Self Awareness struck again, this time telling us to let Bronny be a kid and enjoy college basketball.

It was Bron who blurted out Bronny could play for the Lakers RIGHT NOW

Smith further suggested that LeBron’s public defence of Bronny, especially after his recovery from a summer cardiac arrest, should be tempered by recognising the pressures it introduces.

As Bronny concludes his freshman year at USC, the team’s performance might limit his exposure in the NCAA Tournament, posing challenges for a 2024 draft declaration. Achieving an NBA spot, possibly with LeBron’s Lakers, demands a performance that transcends current statistics and external pressures.
