The son of the Chosen, James's son draft is far away, but the business map has taken shape
The NBA's supergiants are emerging one after another, and even among the 75 superstars, there are only a handful of players who can be called "chosen children".
James is widely regarded as one of the greatest players in NBA history and is often compared to Michael Jordan.
This kind of praise has been with James since high school, where James led the team to a 27-0 record, and appeared in the American "Sports Weekly" in the third grade, and is a veritable "chosen son".
From the perspective of his high school career, James's son Brownie is nothing compared to the young James.
But "Daddy's Chosen Son" Brownie, with James's popularity, has attracted much attention since birth.
LeBron James received sponsorship in high school, and the brand gave him a Humvee, as well as many sneakers and basketball uniforms, which led to James being banned from high school.
In this regard, Brownie is also the first to win the month, James's son draft prediction is not ideal, but there are already many sponsors and colleges and universities who have thrown olive branches to Brownie.
Brownie James, currently attending Sierra Canyon High School (Chatsworth, California) and currently halfway through his senior season, recently played his most complete game of the season, demonstrating his long-range shooting ability beyond the three-point line.
Played 27 minutes, made 3-of-3 three-pointers and contributed five steals.
Brownie's outside shooting ability has grown visibly, thanks to his study of Curry's shooting style, and there is an episode in which Brownie quipped in an interview: "My dad is Curry."
Brownie's recruitment has been kept secret, but several teams have spoken out, such as Ohio, Oregon, the University of Southern California and Michigan. Brownie is currently the highest-ranked undetermined point guard in his high school class in 2023.
LeBron is calm in this regard, and he intends to wait until the end of the high school season to visit the university, and is expected to make a decision later.
James visited The Ohio State University in early September this year, his only known campus visit. He has never publicly commented on which schools are recruiting him, but given LeBron James' long-standing relationship with Nike, and the fact that Brownie James signed a lucrative Nike sneaker deal in October, the amount was not disclosed.
The reporter judged through the above information that Brownie's choice would be a university that cooperated with Nike.
Oregon is the Nike School, headquartered two hours from the school, and founder Phil Knight is the most famous alumnus, providing all student-athletes with Nike's latest gear. Now, Oregon coach Dana Ultraman gets four-star winger Mookie Cook (who actually plays LeBron James in the upcoming film), guard Jackson Shelstad and five-star K.J. Evans.
NBA Hall of Famer Evans broke the news: "[Brownie] told me he likes Oregon and I wish he could go there and see it,"
Nike's Jordan-branded school Michigan is another possible option. Head coach Juwan Howard enjoyed early success during his four seasons as head coach at the University of Michigan. As a former professional player with a long NBA career, James can learn from Howard's endless knowledge. Michigan's offensive system also gives its guards a lot of freedom, and James has excelled as a major ball handler, making the right judgments in blocking. While LeBron James played for the Miami Heat in the 2010-14 season, Howard also served as an assistant coach for the Miami Heat.
Draft website data analysis
The Ohio State University's intention reached 95.5 percent.
And Brownie ranks first in the national high school league by market value, with a brand valuation of $7.5 million! It has far exceeded the CBA league, which has the second highest income in the world, and the top salary of CBA is only 6 million RMB.
This also made Brownie's middle school life like a fish, driving a luxury sports car and soaking his senior sister at every prom.
Even with the blessing of the "chosen son" status, the possibility of Brownie's first-round pick is still very low.
The overall ranking rose to 38th.
It's no secret that LeBron James plans to play a season in the NBA with his son. If Brownie wants to go the professional route, the G League is also an option.
Choosing the Development League route meant that Brownie had a year to play under NBA rules and professional intervals, unlike college players in the draft class.
