Beijing time on March 22, the NBA regular season continues. The famous draft expert Jonathan Wasserman wrote an article analyzing Bronny's draft prospects and predicted that Bronny would be selected at the end of the first round at best. His role was predicted to be a 3D-type defender, modeled on Melton and Grimes.
When talking about Brownie's draft pick, Jonathan Wasserman gave the upper limit as the end of the first round and the lower limit as losing the draft. In the late first round, as long as a team thinks Brownie's shooting touch is worth a gamble and he has the potential to develop into a 3D rotation defender, then he will be selected. Additionally, there's the potential opportunity to acquire James, which could increase Bronny's allure to a team with a higher pick. But his scoring efficiency is too low, and he currently has not shown the skills to score stably at the NBA level.
Brownie's role is predicted to be a 3D shooting guard, and his template is Quentin Grimes and De'Anthony Melton. His most likely offensive role will be as a secondary ball handler and spot-up shooter. In terms of scoring, Bronny will rely heavily on transition offense and jump shots, whether it is catch-and-shoot or one or two dribbles before shooting. Defense is what distinguishes him from other defenders. If he can continue to effectively use his lateral steps, confrontation in the process of squeezing screens, and making trouble in the opponent's passing route, Brownie is most likely to enter the team's rotation. The way is to play the role of a 3D combo guard.
What about Brownie's physical talents and athletic abilities? Brownie's height officially announced by the University of Southern California is 1.93 meters and weighs 95.3 kilograms. Brownie's height and weight are very close to Oladipo from Indiana University, but Oladipo is obviously more explosive and jumping. However, Bronny looks strong enough on the defensive end to take on most defenders.
When talking about Brownie's weaknesses, Jonathan Wasserman bluntly pointed out three points: lack of creating shooting opportunities that are easier to score, lack of finishing ability, and insufficient shooting stability.
