Bronny James has been busy this offseason preparing for his sophomore year with the LA Lakers. JJ Redick’s lead assistant coach, Nate McMillan, opened up about Bronny’s development, especially the criticism surrounding the young guard’s shooting.
Speaking on “The Sports Shop with Reese and K-Mac,” McMillan discussed the changes he saw in Bronny from last year’s Summer League compared to this year. He said that the USC product was more confident and relaxed, pointing to his potential as a 3-and-D player.
“He came out into this summer league and played every game this summer,” McMillan said. “You could see the confidence. He was much more relaxed than he was last year, and everybody would have been nervous as could be last season. … His shot was never broken, but the confidence, you could see he was knocking down those shots, getting to the basket. Defensively, we wanted him to challenge himself to pick up the ball.”
