For sure.

Where is Bronny? Hasn't played in weeks. So far, 2.7 minutes and 2 points, total.

Perhaps he needs a paternal "tush push".

I hope this young man is holding himself together psychologically. It must be somewhat strange, knowing your father is the greatest or second greatest player ever to walk on a floor, while you (at best) are a marginal bench player and with at least half the world thinking you're only there at all because they're doing your dad a favor.

I don't even think he's a marginal bench player....would he even be getting minutes on a top-25 D1 college team right now?

Honestly even he has to know that's the reason he was drafted. My guess is he's fine. He's being coddled by the team and will have very chance to improve, at least as long as his dad is on the team.
