But that’s not all: Bronny also admitted to putting his name on the list of NCAA transfers: If he eventually stays in college therefore he will still leave USC, where he played his senior season. freshman.
Why two opposite paths? Simply because, as things stand at present, Bronny is not at all certain to be selected in this year’s draft. Although months ago he was considered almost a Lottery pick, serious heart problems and a less-than-stellar first season with USC have downgraded his odds. According to ESPN, the 2004 class has a chance of being picked in the mid-second round. Perhaps too low a pick for Bronny James, who at that point might seriously consider trying again in a year. Indeed, prospects have time to take their names out of the cauldron and extend their stay in the NCAA.
In his first season with the USC Trojans, which regardless will also be his last, Bronny has maintained 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists on average, shooting 37 percent from the field, 27 percent from three and 68 percent at the free. According to Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated., scouts would be divided on him.
