Jaylen Brown Clarifies Comments on Bronny James’ NBA Potential After Appearing to Question His Pro Readiness

Jaylen Brown is clearing up his recent comments about Bronny James’ future in the NBA.

In a video of Brown sitting courtside in Las Vegas with Kysre Gondrezick and star Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese, the Celtics star appears to say, “I don’t think Bronny is a pro,” with Gondrezick appearing to respond, “I think he’ll be on the G-league team for sure.”

He seemingly replies, “I don’t think so, I think because of his name he’ll be on the Lakers.”

To clear things up, Brown took to X early Monday to clarify what he meant.

He wrote, “It’s a flex to have your son alongside you in the NBA. It reflects greatness and longevity! Bronny has all the tools around him to be successful. I look forward to watching his growth.”

Many fans are appreciating his supportive stance on Bronny’s potential. Some still feel conflicted about his initial comment, but his follow-up has brought a lot of positivity back to the conversation.
