No coincidence that LeFlop was at the Cavs game tonight, same day reports of Bronny being medically cleared are released.


Any other athlete, its a good story. But Bron is a bitch.

Real surprise was Reed Sheppard with the 42.5" vertical, highest jump at the combine.

He has never played football and wasn't allowed. He's never hit or been hit. It would take years for him to convert and train for the role. It's not out of the realm of possibility. He is going to be out of the league in 2-3 seasons (when he's around 22). He could always go back to school and try it out. He would have at least 3 seasons to give it a shot. He can start at a small school and transfer his last year or two. Weinke was 28 when he won the Heisman. There are a ton of other guys that went back to football late..

Yeh agreed. I’m saying in hindsight football would have been far better suited for him

Yes it is

His dad being a billionaire will make him too soft to play football, whether he thinks he is or not

But the nba doesn’t have a place for someone that is 6’1” that can’t shoot and score off his own dribble
Before this season, you just described Jose Alvarado, who was a bad scorer from anywhere on the court basically.

The 6-foot-2 guard has looked great in predraft workouts leading up to the combine, working out with other Klutch clients Rob Dillingham and KJ Simpson. Bronny is by no means a finished product, but he has the foundation to be a productive roleplaying guard at the NBA level with how well he can shoot the 3-ball, his quick decision making and the way he can defend the perimeter.
He shot 26.7% from 3 at USC

It's not unprecedented.

Giannis' brother may be the worst player in the NBA but he gets a roster spot over somebody more deserving. If Giannis retired, his brother would be kicked to the curb immediately.

The Bulls brought Jack Haley from San Antonio to be Rodman's babysitter.

If this guy didn’t know LeBron, he would be another black guy, bouncing a ball.

Why? He would have only made a fraction of the money playing in the NFL, NBA contracts are fully guaranteed and he’s still playing at 40. Anyone who has a choice between playing in the NBA and NFL and chooses NFL is an idiot.

I’m still lol’ing that he’s been listed as 6’4 everywhere and gets to the combine and he’s 6’1

Why can’t Lebron just let his son go to college and enjoy his life at a normal pace? The kid could become an NBA player in time but he clearly isn’t right now. This is pathetic.

I kind of get it. Going now, he'll get drafted and get to play some his 1st year. I don't imagine he'll play more than 2 or 3 seasons. But maybe he's a journeyman for a couple more, just based off his name.

I always thought it would have been wiser to go to a strong college program and do a full 4 seasons. Use his influence to stock big talent and make deep runs in the spring. He'd make a ton of NIL money and get to be his own man. He'd probably still get a shot at the league too (just off his name). But this was never a real option..

Reed Shepard should have played baseball.

6'1" with a 6'3" wing at 181lbs
