    I get it, Nepotism does exist, and many of us would do the same thing if in the position to help the people we love, especially if it's our own child. Nothing against Bronny James, but I can't help but think if Davis and Love last name was James, they would be #1 overall picks in this year's draft. I think all the guys mentioned in this video can be great in the league, sucks they have to wait another year when the path is paved so neatly for a guy like Bronny and others benefitting from who they're related to. Hopefully they still get their chance and escape injuries this season as they go back to school to try and prove themselves once again. Do you have an issue with Nepotism in sports?

      Come on hes not taking rhe spot of love and Davis. If they were good enough they would be drafted over bronny. Idc who his dad is it only gets him so far otherwise thanasis would be starting. Who cares if hes the 54th pick in a bad draft. 2nd round picks rarely make the team let alone play so who cares. It only matters cuz the media is profit driven so they milk the story

      I been sayin the same thing. I am not a LeBron cult member, but I agree with Rich Paul on his point about nepotism. There are US presidents that are juniors. Most of every business and every dynasty is built on nepotism. Kolb Karl, Luke Walton and 4 Barry played in the NBA (@ of the were NBA players. Blake Griffins brither played in the NBA, Dale Davis's son is in the NBA, Patrick Ewing's son played in the NBA, Larry Nance Jr., Glen Rice Jr., Glen Robinson III, Damian Wilkins. So the NBA has always been about nepotism. So is the rest of the industries in this world. Why wouldn/t LeBron do the same?

    I feel like this is a very important subject, my sons recently experienced nepotism on a basketball team. One played the 1( scoring 16ppg) and the other played the 2( 8ppg 7 steals) but the were repeatedly beached for the head coach and owner son which was trash. I removed them from the team and the team when on to lose every game big after. My sons were happier and were already national champions and jr Olympic in fighting. They had to get away from that team in bball tho. It was so toxic.

      It’s very important man and so unfair. To literally think if Caleb Love was Caleb James, with his talent, he would’ve been the #1 pick 3 years ago! You did the right thing. No parent should stand for it and more people should speak out against it. I see X NBA players meat ride this situation in James’ favor, when they know a guy that averaged 4ppg in college, with a major heart issue would never be considered for the NBA, yet has Rob Palinka come watch his workout is crazy. Lebron always says this and that has no place in sports, well neither does nepotism. Let your son earn it like everyone else. One of the biggest issues in basketball and it won’t ever change because people are selfish.

You know how much these Devils Hate you and Hate the image you have as a FATHER sso why would you give these Devils a reason to try to crush that Dream???
      Shoulda kept it to himself and said that he wanted his son to get a 4-Year degree, If he would have played that angle you'd have all these Devils working overtime to get Bronny into the League and saying he deserves a chance. Finnesse these Demons.

    Nepotism is here to stay! NBA teams make economic decisions, and drafting players with "pedigree" makes sense on so many levels. Let's not forget the NBA mantra of the past! "It's ENTERTAINMENT!" Moreover, players with such pedigree have the support system to ensure that at some point they can develop into a serviceable PRO! As children, they are around the game at a high level and can seemingly handle the finances better than others. The players that you highlighted would certainly be high draft picks in the past. However, we can not overlook the fact that their individual decisions to return are also motivated by their ability to get paid at a level never seen before in college athletics! The "game" has changed from top to bottom in so many ways! I appreciate your commentary on such a hot topic! I just hope parents and players alike, take note of the landscape, and make informed decisions. I'm looking forward to the return of the aforementioned players to assess their individual decisions to return! Bronny and other progeny will do just fine in whatever they decide to do. "They are already rich; B****!😂

    Leverage is leverage. Nepotism is rarely ever used in the NFL coaching search so I think it's hypothetical to use apply the argument in this case. Decisions in sports 'entertainment' is not simply based on meritocracy. The NBA is a business, therefore GMs will be making decisions like they always do. GMs and owners draft players to appease an agent, pander to their home crowd, draft on potential not production, pick players from storied programs to ensure they have access to other star players or simply returning a favor, or identify foreign for first round picks in order to not pay them for 3 years or protect their salary cap. I wish Bronny as much success as any player while laughing at the self righteous folks who argue against leverage.
