New Ringer story: The Wait and Weight of Bronny James
The world is watching impatiently as LeBron’s oldest son tries to follow in his father’s impossible footsteps. But despite unfathomable pressure, Bronny isn’t crumbling. “It’s who he is as a person."
Hey everyone, my newest profile is on Bronny James. I spent a lot of time on this one, and I hope it offers new perspective on him. In particular, I hope more attention is paid to this line, which really helped me distill to myself what this story is about: “The discourse surrounding Bronny has now taken on a life of its own. He’s almost become a narrative, with some forgetting that he’s a person and not just a prospect.”
He is a person.
