Teague’s comments also serve as a warning to Bryce about rushing into professional basketball. Despite being drafted by the Lakers, Bronny has struggled to adjust to the demands of the NBA. His performance in college was underwhelming, and some critics argue that he would have benefited from more developmental time before turning pro. Similarly, Teague suggests that Bryce should prioritize long-term growth and avoid entering the NBA prematurely. The message is clear: talent alone isn’t enough to succeed, and knowing when to wait-or even walk away-can sometimes be the smarter choice.
While the legacy of the James family undoubtedly surpasses that of the Jordans in basketball, the reality is that the legacy of the fathers of these families, LeBron and Michael, will never be matched by any of their children. It’s impossible to match what those two individuals have accomplished. Personally, I think LeBron will never surpass Jordan’s fame, but in terms of NBA statistics, he surpassed him a few years ago. Will it be possible to watch LeBron play with his two sons? I find it difficult, first of all because Bronny seems to be far away from being a rotation player in the NBA, let alone a starter, and Bryce still has a long way to go.
