Milwaukee Bucks news: Bronny James has been the bell of the ball as NBA hopefuls show off their skills in the Draft Combine. The 19-year-old is far from the top prospect in his draft class, but the fact that he is the eldest son of Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has a lot to do with Bronny making all sorts of headlines of late.

Bronny himself knows that he isn’t exactly superstar material. In fact, he’s named a trio of NBA players who he hopes to emulate if and when he gets into the league.

Milwaukee Bucks News: Bronny James Sees Himself in Jrue Holiday Role

According to Bronny, a player he sees as a prototype for himself is former Bucks guard Jrue Holiday, who now plies his trade with the Boston Celtics. Derrick White, a current teammate of Holiday in Boston, as well as Davion Mitchell of the Sacramento Kings are two other players Bronny idolizes:

For his part, Holiday is no superstar. However, he’s not exactly a role player either. The former All-Defense guard is a two-time All-Star, and there’s no denying that he played a crucial role in Milwaukee’s iconic 2021 championship run.

If Bronny is able to somehow emulate Holiday’s NBA tenure, then it would definitely be considered a successful and noteworthy professional career.
