Many people believe that James still has a future ahead of himself, even though he has been having a tough time making an impact when playing with the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA.
He has potential and there is obviously talent there.
People feel that if he can keep nurturing his skills, he can go far, even if some fans don’t think so.
bright future ahead 🤞👀

Many want to see James silence all of his “haters” and the people who think he has no chance of making his mark in the league.
They feel that games like this prove there is something to celebrate in the young rookie.
They compare him to his father, LeBron, because they both love the game and want nothing more than to play professional basketball.
I hope that he continues to silence the haters. Just a kid with a dream just like his Papa.

Consistency will be key for James, and many people online say he is starting to show sustained effort and output game after game.
The fact that he has put up at least 23 points in three of his last four games proves that he really is making this a habit.
He’s kinda blossoming into a consistent player right now. I think he can have a nice career in the g league

And a lot of fans saw similarities to LeBron’s game, which is obviously a reason to be excited.
His dad just did that same dunk the other day
