Also just realized UCF is in the Big 12 this year. Hendricks played the final year of them being a mid major.

LOL, you are such a poser.

I just watched one game, but I saw Arizona treat him like a 3rd or 4th defensive priority and he scored on some open shots. Once he hit 11 points early in the second half, Arizona decided to prioritize him and he never scored again.
I figured OK, Arizona may be able to just do that because they are good defensively. Then I looked at Bronny's stats for the last two games. A "prospect" should be able to be held scoreless over multiple stretches at the whim of the other team. Especially someone as small and "athletic" as Bronny.

The "HEAR ME OUT, BRONNY WOULD BE A 1ST ROUND PICK EVEN IF HIS DAD WAS A NOBODY" thing is the most tired zag in a long time.
This is a G-League / overseas player.

I can pull up several Donovan Mitchell games from his Freshman year were he did the same.
He wouldnt be this talked about without his dad, but he is certainly a prospect. To act like he isnt is you just be a contrarian because you feel some kind of need to balance out a certain group of people who overhype him. You arent someone who knows draft prospects so it's cute you're jumping on just to hate on a 19 year old kid who is playing his first season of college basketball after a near death experience.
Really dont understand this need from losers such as yourself to go out of their way to **** on the dude. He's shown great flashes. He's a high IQ combo guard who plays defense. Give him time and stop being a clown.
This draft isnt strong, the back end of the first round will be teams taking what's leftover from the ready now upperclassmen, severely disappointing freshman (think Justin Edwards), and pre-drafting long shots who decided to come out because the weak class gives them a shot to earn a guaranteed deal.
With what Bronny James has shown I would find it perfectly reasonable if a team wanted to pre-draft him at the back end of the first round.

A lot of nice stuff here despite Framer framing this as some ho-hum showing .
Bronny has struggled in a few games but that isn't surprising since he is a freshman and also missed a ton of time because of his heart. He doesn't project as a star but he more so as a very good role player and him struggling hasn't changed that opinion at all.

I mean it is a highlight reel. I watched the game live. He doesn't have the juice to get by someone if he becomes a defensive target. If you are going to make it as 6'3" one and done, that needs to be part of the package, even as a freshman.
If he wants to just be a very good college player, he can probably get there.
But yeah, why don't you get back to us after you get some talking points from the podcasts you listen to.

Look who has all of the sudden decided to join the "Let's give a kid a chance before we damn him!" Brigade. You literally are famous for doing the opposite. It is your defining trait.
Who do I not give a chance to exactly?
You are such a ridiculous poster.
Go back to hating on a 19 year old who nearly died from a medical situation just because you dont like that he gets more hype than you think he should.
Yes, you usually want your one and done players to have more high end talent, but there's plenty of examples of guys coming out earlier than they should, getting pre-drafted, and succeeding. There isnt one path to NBA success of coming out exactly when you're ready.
