Davis, in an interview with TMZ, explained why Bronny’s recent decision was the right one.
“For him, declaring for the draft would be good because he may be a better pro than he is a college player,” Davis said. “The program is a lot different, it’s more free-flowing, you’re not coached every moment, you not playing zone all the time. So from what I’ve seen from Bronny, he’s athletic and a smart point guard, he can shoot the ball, so if I was him, I’d try my hand too, and if I don’t like what I see, now I can go back into the portal and go somewhere and rock.”
Davis also expressed his desire to see Bronny and LeBron play together, which is a long-stated goal of LeBron’s.
“I want to see Bronny and LeBron play on the same team,” he said. “That’ll be hard. Like Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr. That shit would be hella hard.”
Bronny James’ NBA draft important decision
After a tumultuous freshman season at USC, Bronny announced he would both declare for the NBA draft and enter the transfer portal, effectively keeping his options open while allowing NBA front offices to evaluate his true place in the upcoming draft.
“I’ve had a year with some ups and downs but all added to growth for me as a man, student and athlete,” Bronny said in a statement via Instagram. “I’ve made the decision to enter the NBA Draft while maintaining my college eligibility, and will also be entering the NCAA transfer portal. Thank you to USC for an amazing Freshman year, and as always thankful for my family, friends, doctors, athletic trainers and fans for their support.”
