Fans are not entirely sure what to expect from Bronny James in his first NBA season, but the rookie's name means he'll receive plenty of coverage regardless of how he impacts his new team, the Los Angeles Lakers.
James, the son of NBA legend and current Lakers player LeBron James, had an underwhelming season at USC after he suffered cardiac arrest the summer before his lone season with the program.
He recovered from that health scare and averaged 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 0.8 steals in 19.3 minutes per game over 25 games played. His passing and defensive ability have been pointed out as his best attributes.
Here, we'll break down the specials fans can bet on heading into Bronny's rookie year.
Bronny James never scored more than 20 points in his 25 games played at USC.
His career high was 15 points against Oregon State, which he scored on 11 shots in 20 minutes of play.
Bronny James hasn't scored 25 points in a game since his high school days, but if he starts a game and has a green light to shoot, he could surprise fans with his scoring ability.
James is not known as a prolific scorer, but before his cardiac arrest, he was projected as a top-10 NBA Draft pick by some well-regarded draft experts. If he gets back to that level, he could receive more playing time - and more chances to score - than fans currently anticipate.
James set the record for the most three-pointers made in a single Nike Hoop Summit game with five. At USC, he had three games with two three-pointers made.
With LeBron James and D'Angelo Russell expected to do most of the ballhandling for the Lakers, Bronny James could fill an off-ball role which would free him up to shoot. That said, he made just 26.7 percent of his threes at USC.
Bronny James had at least five assists in four games at USC, and his career-high was seven assists in 22 minutes against Oregon.
James never reached even a double-double at USC, but he did have 10+ points, 5+ rebounds and 5+ assists in a game on one occasion. He posted 11 points, five rebounds and six assists against Arizona.
