Bronny James Roasted For Embarrassing Airball: VIDEO
Bronny James got absolutely cooked Wednesday after an embarrassing moment on the court.
The second round draft pick of the Los Angeles Lakers airballed a close practice shot during a summer league game against the Heat, and it's certainly a tough look.
If people needed more ammo to claim he's only in the NBA because his dad is LeBron James, this video will certainly give it to them.
Give it a watch below. A middle school player would have had more success.

Naturally, the internet wasted absolutely no time before going all in on LeBron's son. Check out some of the reactions below, and hit me with your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com:
This is more or less what people can expect to see when it comes to Bronny James all year long. The Lakers drafted him to keep LeBron James happy, Bronny doesn't have nearly enough skill to be in the NBA, he's not even good enough to be a star in summer league and every time he messes up, people are going to hound him.
To some degree, it's not even his fault. It's his dad's fault for putting him in this position. Bronny averaged under five points a game at USC, and ended up being drafted 55th overall.
It's probably the greatest example of nepotism in NBA history. Now, he's airballing practice shots and getting destroyed online.
He better get used to it because fans are going to keep this energy for a very long time.
