Months have passed since Bronny James was drafted by the Los Angeles Lakers as the 55th overall pick during the 2024 NBA Draft. However, James still seems to be the center of discussion among fans around the world. Recently, the famous basketball game which will be released in September, the NBA 2k25’s player ratings were released.

Interestingly, Bronny James got a rating of 68 as per X account LakeShowYo for the upcoming edition of the basketball game. However, fans were not impressed with his rating, deeming it to be too high for a rookie still to prove his abilities and skills to the basketball community. One fan wrote on X, “not even tryna be mean but absolutely WAY too high”

On the other hand, all eyes will be on the first-ever father-son duo (LeBron James and Bronny James) in the 2024-25 NBA season. A lot will be expected from the younger James going into his first season especially having the advantage of playing with his dad on the court. Also, James Jr. had a mediocre NBA Summer League for the Lakers and will be looking to improve as the season approaches.
