Michael Jordan’s kid averaged 12 points per game at UCF and didn’t get drafted. Bronny is averaging less than 5 ppg

He will not get drafted. He may sign as a FA but any tesm would be stupid to do that. I don’t care how important Lebron is.

Talent isn't hereditary. I don't know why we continue to act like it should be.

Circumstances also can drive you to develop that talent further than others would. None of these kids face the same challenges their fathers did.

Second round picks generally do not start in the league and are out of developmental leagues by year 4.

Someone will take a flyer in the 50s.

Hell, some like the Magic trade most of their picks in the 2nd for cash considerations anyway.

Serious question, has their been an all-time great where any of their sons were able to live up to their dad's hype?

I mean let's go down the list, Jerry West, Bill Russell, Wilt, Kareem, Magic, Larry, Jordan, Shaq, Karl Malone, Moses Malone, Hakeem, Charles Barkley, Oscar Robertson, etc etc.

Sure, some of them never had sons. But I know half of them had to have at least one son, but none of them made the NBA. If they did, they didn't become a notable player.

The best NBA great I can think of with a sin is Gary Payton, and GP2 is nothing more than an ok bench role player.

Karl Malone’s daughter was a WNBA all star, if that counts

Lots of solid NBA players have had sons who became great players (Steph Curry, Klay Thompson) and a bunch had sons who are much better than Bronny. Just look at the Michigan and Duke rosters (Glenn Robinson III, Austin Rivers, Gary Payton Jr, Mike Dunleavy Jr, Tim Hardaway Jr, Gerald Henderson, etc.

But the closest to all time great is Tim Hardaway.

Domantas Sabonis actually may be the one, if we count his dad’s international record.

if they are getting rid of a guard it would be Skylar Mays who has played a whopping 1 minute per game the past 3 games and scored 0 pts

I blame the Mannings. 2/3 of the sons eclipsed Archie and unfortunately reset the expectations across sports.
