“Nothing new to him”: LeBron James reacts to Bronny James’ candid confession on facing a mountain of criticism

LeBron James has reacted to the latest debate on the career ofBronny James in the NBA. There is no shortage of criticism for the Los Angeles Lakers rookie but he and his father are trying to make a strong case for him. While criticism soars, LeBron has recently given his thoughts on his son, Bronny’s growth amid the mountain of negative comments on tenure in the league so far. Still, the young star takes this heat into motivation.

Bronny James has been trying his best to make his case strong in the NBA. In his recent chat with The Athletic, the young guard shared that he hears all the criticism directed towards him. "My first thought about everything is I always try to just let it go through one ear and out the other, put my head down and come to work and be positive every day," he told the outlet.
"But sometimes it just, it fuels me a little bit. I see everything that people are saying, and people think, like, I’m a f**king robot, like I don’t have any feelings or emotions," he added.
His father, LeBron James has finally broke silence over the matter after his recent incident with Stephen A. Smith involving a similar issue— the criticism of Bronny.
“Yeah, he’s grew up in it, so it’s nothing new to him,” James said (via BOLAVIP). “I think you saw the article that came out that he did, that he wanted to do and express his feelings about everything. But the kid is focused, and he locks in on his craft. Like you said, he hears everything, and he uses that as motivation. And I mean, but he is here for a reason, and he showed that the other night,” he added reflecting on Bronny’s chat with The Athletic.
Bronny stepped up against the Milwaukee Bucks on the Lakers 118-89 loss on March 20 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. He made the most of his extended playing time, logging nearly 30 minutes on the court. He delivered a stunning performance, shooting 7-of-10 from the field and 2-of-4 from beyond the arc. He also contributed across the board with one rebound, one steal, and five assists. Bronny added 17 points, to the team's total.
